Description
One of the most emblematic cru of the DOCG Barolo, this wine has expressive floral notes and subtle smokiness on the nose, with round and slightly sweet tannins on palate, in the words of winemaker Alessandro Ceretto, wines from Brunate are typically fruit-forward and floral with silky tannins and a classic Nebbiolo bouquet.
James Suckling
Fantastic tension and concentration give this superbly balanced wine a memorable profile that will bring pleasure for years to come. Intricate layers of raspberries, cranberries, minerals and orange peel leave a lingering finish. Best from 2028.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
This wine sources its fruit from one of the headline vineyards in La Morra. Ceretto is indeed lucky to have such a beautiful site, which measures 5.6 hectares. The 2020 Barolo Brunate, made with organic fruit, is a wine of energy and tension. This vintage delivers extra power as well. It proceeds over the palate with pretty tightness and texture, underlined by finesse and length. Red and purple fruits abound, as do light shadings of earth and spice.
