Note di degustazione
The 2015 Barolo Cerretta is the most powerful and tannic of the four 2015 Barolos I tasted from Schiavenza. Bold aromatics, incisive tannins and a touch of alcoholic warmth are among the signatures. Of all of these wines, the Cerretta will benefit most from time in bottle, although my impression is that some rough edges will always remain. The 2015 feels just a bit overdone, otherwise, though, it is quite good.

This is the most structured of the various Barolos made by Schiavenza, a producer who specializes in Nebbiolo from Serralunga d'Alba. This wine is tight and firm, surely a bit closed at this young stage. The 2015 Barolo Cerretta promises to expand and relax with more time in the bottle. Previous vintages have aged to produce lovely notes of smoke, tar and grilled herbs. It should shape up to be another good hearty red-meat Barolo.
A dense and flavorful red with dark-berry, plum and spice character. Lots of cedar and berries. Full body, chewy tannins and a delicious finish. Some tile and earth undertones at the end. Drink from 2022.
