2016 Ceretto Barolo Bricco Rocche

Ceretto`s 2016 Bricco Roche is creamy, ample and wonderfully inviting, especially for a young wine. Silky tannins and plush fruit meld so well with the wine`s mid-weight structure. Sweet rose petal, red berry, mint, blood orange and cedar are some of the many notes that open up with a bit of air. The 2016 captures all the elegance and finesse that are such signatures of this Castilgione Falletto site. 96+ points

Castiglione Falletto. Just mid ruby. All minerals and stones on the nose and with subtle but ripe fruit underneath. Very subtle, long and tight and very elegant at the same time. Beautiful, firm but polished tannins. 17.5 points
