Note di degustazione
The Ceretto 2015 Barolo is a great wine to pair with fassona, the famous beef from this region, or any other typical Piedmontese meat dish. This is the so-called base Barolo, or classico, that is designed to be an expression of the Nebbiolo grape more than any single-vineyard cru. The wine is satiny and silky with fine texture. Producers hate this "base" descriptor, because it implies an inferior product to a cru. Don't be misled: This is a Barolo-lover's Barolo. It's a true gem and an extremely elegant creation, and with 54,000 bottles produced, there is enough to go around.

12 months in 300-litre used French oak, then 24 months in larger, Stockinger botti. Pale ruby-garnet. Fresh earth. Fresh red cherry and some blueberry tones. Orange peel and floral lift, with some background oak nuttiness. Attractive in its youth. Nutty, spicy palate entry, with plenty of savoury cherry fruit, flint mineral and spice. Long, with high, but very fine-grained tannins. Classy, blended Barolo. (TJ)
A very pretty wine in its peer group, Ceretto's 2015 Barolo is pliant, open-knit and quite pretty, and yet it appears to have a good bit of supporting structure as well. Floral overtones and bright red berry fruit open up in this super-expressive, silky, entry-level Barolo from Ceretto. The balance of fruit and structure is impressive, but more than anything else, the 2015 is simply delicious.
