2017 Ceretto Barolo Brunate

Community Tasting Note

Thursday, March 31, 2022 - Deep and intense, the 2017 Barolo Brunate really keeps you at the edge of your seat as cedar shavings and crushed rocks evolve into a blend of dried roses and strawberries. This is far prettier and finessed than anticipated, with soft contours offset by sour cherry and mineral tones. There’s a salty flourish and hints of hard red candies that define the finale, as the 2017s tannins come in late, tugging at the cheeks and drying the expression. I really love the aromatics here, yet I wonder if its fruit is up to the task of outliving its youthful structure.
