Barolo Cerretta 2018

Description

Still red Barolo DOCG, 14.5% ABV, 100% Nebbiolo, 2018 vintage, produced by Brandini in La Morra, Piedmont. A Barolo born from a passion for organic farming, a true lifestyle for the Brandini family. Fermentation in temperature-controlled steel tanks with maceration on the skins for approximately 4 weeks and frequent pumping over. Aged in large barrels (20/60hl) for 30 months and then 6-8 months in bottle. On the nose, it opens up after brief aeration, revealing notes of leather and eucalyptus, along with spicy and balsamic hints. Garnet red in color, tending toward orange with age. The palate is broad but not invasive, with a well-controlled structure and a balanced and harmonious digestion of the wood's contribution.

We have always believed that organic is a way of life rather than a method of production, we believe in the importance of this philosophy in order to leave the ground in better conditions than we found it. Our grapes are grown in full respect of the wonderful land that hosts us, of the people who work there and of the consumer who choose us. Sometimes, to follow an ideal, one must have the courage to face more difficult paths.

We produce wines that are an expression of the territory in full respect of the Langa tradition. We follow step by step the transformation of grapes into wine thanks to the attention of our winemakers and the use of the best technologies. At the center of all our choices is the search for the highest quality, from the vineyard to the bottle. Read more
