Note di degustazione
The 2017 Barolo Brunate is one of the most expressive Barolos in this flight of 2017 Barolos from Ceretto. Dark cherry, rose petal, kirsch, mint and lavender fill out the layers nicely. The warmth and dryness of the year is evident in the wine's feel. Alessandro Ceretto opted to only use fruit from the oldest vines at Brunate, those that are 50 years old. Consequently, production is down by nearly 75%.

Extremely aromatic with blackberry, dried strawberry, wet earth and crushed stone. Full-bodied with intense, firm tannins. Very tight at the finish with precise, polished fruit and structure. From organically grown grapes. A great 2017. Needs time to open and soften. Drink after 2025.
The 2017 Barolo Brunate is another very expressive wine with a dark fruit signature and extra concentration, thanks to this warm vintage. Layers of black fruit and plum cede to spice, licorice and spent embers. To the palate, the wine shows an open-knit fiber with solid fruit weight and a richly layered approach.
La Morra. Youthful mid ruby. Full, deep nose of ripe, red fruit with the merest suggestion of oak, like a seasoning more than anything. Peppery prickle on the nose and lifted, aromatic cherry notes with a hint of nutmeg. Lively, concentrated sour-cherry palate, viscous and multi-layered. Firm, but well-behaved tannins adding grip to the cherry fruit on the long finish. (WS)
