The 2020 harvest for Ceretta was finished quite late on 13 October. Notes of wild strawberry and cinnamon are accompanied by hints of wax liquorice balsamic and bloody nuances. Fierce acidity supports firm velvety tannins with great extraction on the mid-palate and a stern yet long aftertaste. There is great potential for ageing here. Lorenzo Scavino and his father manage this family-owned winery which celebrates its 100th vintage with the 2020 harvest. This Barolo Cerretta undergoes fermentation with indigenous yeasts and a long maceration of 40 days with submerged cap. The oak chosen for the botti grandi must be ?thicker? ? meaning older with a finer grain. (Drink between 2024-2035)
