November 7, 2023 - wet forest floor, old leather, and dried roses on the nose. same on the palate along with dark cherry. believe this saw some new oak. tannins are now fully integrated and the wine is drinking quite well. a soft texture is followed by a finish that falls out a bit at the end. wine did not wow me..........little to no bricking and a very dark color further indicate the use of new oak.

May 8, 2023 - Decanted for about an hour to let a barnyard funk to blow off. It still had an off taste which disappeared as we drank the rest of the wine over another hour plus. Dry flowers with a medium, very dry tannin.By the end of the carafe the wine was excellent (93+) but rated down from the funk and off-flavors until a bunch of hours sitting.

September 1, 2022 - Brun farge. Har ligget akkurat passe lenge, trengte ikke luftes. Aroma av lær, tørket frukt og hint av sauefjøs. Passe moden frukt, rett før overmoden, med lange tørre og behagelige tanniner, godt med syre. Traff slutten av drikkevinduet, burde ikke ha ligget særlig mye lenger.

swapdoc Does not like this wine:
July 6, 2020 - Woody, generic wine; cola, soaked wine barrel. Lacked minerality, aromatic complexity. Drank over several days; never came alive.

March 15, 2011 (link)(Giovanni Rosso Ceretta) Lovely perfumes of red roses, Queen Anne cherry, and strawberry jam jump out of the glass. Medium-full with very good concentration, this Rosso offers sleek acidity, graceful tannins, subtle wood notes, and a lengthy, elegant finish. A bit atypical for Serralunga, it is stylish and approachable on release, but will still be at its best in 15-20 years. Appellation: Serralunga d'Alba
