Ceretto's 2011 Barolo show very much in line with previous tastings. The wines are open and racy in style, as one might expect in this vintage. In my view, the Prapò is the least marked by the year and is the wine that retains the most individuality. In recent years, Alessandro Ceretto has largely converted his vineyards to biodynamic farming and refined his approach to cooperage, both pretty significant changes that will take time to show clear results, although the early signs are quite encouraging.

Ceretto's 2011 Barolos are highly representative of the year. Today, the Brunate appears to be the most marked by the year, while the Prapò and Bricco Rocche are both a bit more faithful to site. I tasted all of Ceretto 2011s just before bottling, and then a few weeks after, both delicate moments in time for Barolo, so I have opted to leave in my original scores from barrel until the wines have settled a bit in bottle.
