Alessandro Ceretto presented a compelling set of 2020 Barbarescos and 2019 Barolos. These are some of the most impressive wines I have tasted in 20+ years of visiting. The Barbarescos are super-classic wines built on gorgeous aromatic presence and elegant, mid-weight structure. I admire the Barolos for their transparency and expression of place. Harvest occurred between October 3 and 8, placing Ceretto among the earlier pickers in this vintage. The wines spent about 25 days on the skins. Malolactic fermentations were done in neutral French oak where the wines spent about nine months before being racked into Stockinger casks for aging.
