The Conterno Giacomo Barolo DOCG Cerretta 2020 is a wine that embodies the essence of Piedmontese winemaking tradition, expressing the unique character of the Langhe terroir. Made from Nebbiolo grapes sourced from the namesake Cerretta vineyard, this Barolo is a true symphony of complex aromas and enveloping notes. In the glass, it presents a deep garnet color, foreshadowing a richness already sensed on the nose. Here, a rich and intricate bouquet unfolds, revealing aromas of ripe cherries, plums, and delicate floral notes of rose, accompanied by earthy and spicy hints of black pepper and tobacco.
On the palate, the Cerretta 2020 offers a powerful and consistent structure, with silky tannins that promote a long persistence. The well-balanced acidity makes the sip lively and dynamic, while the finish is characterized by elegant notes of vanilla and chocolate, a result of aging in oak barrels. Perfect for pairing with rich dishes such as Barolo braised beef or aged cheese like Castelmagno, this wine is an invitation to immerse oneself in the Piedmontese gastronomic culture. A Barolo that promises to evolve magnificently over the years, leaving an indelible mark on the heart of those fortunate enough to taste it.
