Crafted from a blend of select vineyard sites located within the DOCG Barolo, the idea of combining the unique flavor profiles vinified from the different sub-zones of this admired appellation has always been the original concept of a great Barolo. The most classic producers typically avoided putting the individual expression of a single vineyard ahead of the blend, championing the idea of coherence and integration of a blend. In Ceretto’s flagship Barolo, two ‘souls’ of the appellation are brought together to provide balance—the gentler side from the hillside vines grown in the Tortonian soils surrounding La Morra and Barolo and the more austere and masculine side, coming from vines grown in the typical Helvetian soil found in Serralunga d’Alba. Vintage after vintage winemaker Alessandro Ceretto attempts to express the full potential of Barolo, providing consumers a rich and virile wine, able to be enjoyed young or after it is fully evolved, a wine for the those who are truly passionate about Barolo.  Ceretto’s Barolo Classico 2020 has soft notes of rose petals, cigar box and red forest berries on the nose. The wine’s well-balanced acidity entices the drinker to take and another sip as this wine is a complete joy on its own by-the-glass or when paired with a myriad of meat or cream-based dishes.
