Luigi Baudana Barolo Ceretta 2019 Bottle size: 750ml
Italy, Piedmont
R1,395
‘The 2019 Barolo Cerretta is packed with dark cherry, smoke, gravel, blood orange incense, scorched earth, licorice and mocha. This ample, full-bodied Barolo offers tremendous depth and textural intensity. Powerful and brooding, with tons of muscle and tannin, the Cerretta is incredibly promising. It is the most potent wine in this portfolio, by a pretty substantial range. 2027-2044’ – Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 97/100
‘The Luigi Baudana 2019 Barolo Cerretta is an open-knit and powerful expression of Nebbiolo from one of the best sites in Serralunga d'Alba. Cerretta is a large MGA vineyard to the north of the village, with Baudana on the hillside to the west and Prapò to the south. This wine offers volume and richness in terms of mouthfeel, with fleeting aromas of wild berry, iris and crushed rose. 2025-2045’ – Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, 95/100
‘Bright and full of strawberry, cherry, violet, mineral and eucalyptus flavors, this red is juicy in texture. A line of dense, mouthcoating tannins awaits on the long finish. All the components are there, this just needs time. Best from 2027 through 2047.’ – Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator, 95/100
‘Big and bold but with polish. Very neat and appetising. Lots of punch and excitement. 2025-2042’ – Jancis Robinson, jancisrobinson.com, 18/20
