Luigi Baudana - Barolo Cerretta 2016 Ml. 750
Winery Luigi Baudana
Characteristic
Cerretta is most austere of the estate vineyards. This site produces wines of depth, breed and nobility. Barolo Cerretta is made by 100% Nebbiolo grapes from the homonymous vineyard in Serralunga. Grapes are picked from 40 years old wines of multiple biotypes of Nebbiolo, representing an incredible heritage of Luigi’s work. Nebbiolo has the longest vegetative cycle among local varieties, and usually is harvested around the third week of October. Fermentation is carried primarily in one large cask. The Cerretta vineyard has always a slow start of fermentation, for 35-40 days on average. Post-fermentation “Cappello sommerso” (submerged cap) follows for another week in greater vintages. Cerretta is aged in large Slavonian casks for 32 months on average.
