Giovanni Rosso Cerretta: The Definitive Serralunga Barolo

The Barolo DOCG 'Cerretta' from Giovanni Rosso is a stunning single-vineyard bottling, showcasing the power and pedigree of the Serralunga d’Alba commune. Hailing from a prime south/south-east facing Cru, the Nebbiolo vines thrive in the compact, chalky marl soils. The result is a wine of profound depth, structural integrity, and that unmistakable salty minerality characteristic of the finest Serralunga Baroli.

Tasting Profile

• Colour: A luminous garnet red with a deep core and ruby reflections.
• Aromatics: An enchanting perfume of ripe sour cherry, wild berries, and dried rose petals, entwined with subtle, sophisticated hints of liquorice, graphite, and tobacco.
• Palate: Focused and full-bodied. The wine is driven by firm, yet beautifully polished tannins and a taut, lively acidity that perfectly balances the rich fruit. The finish is persistent and multi-layered, revealing a compelling mineral coolness. This is an uncompromising, precise Barolo built for the long haul.

Serving Suggestion

A wine of this calibre requires appropriate preparation. Decant for a minimum of two hours to aerate and soften the powerful structure. Best served at a cool cellar temperature, 16-18°C.
