BAROLODOCG Barolo DOCG was created as the first Barolo of the house of Ceretto. The majority of the fruit came, at that time, from the Barolo DOCG commune of La Morra. Barolo DOCG was considered Ceretto’s top Barolo until the 1970s, when Bruno and Marcello Cerreto decided to invest in prestigious single vineyards. From that point forward, Barolo DOCG became the second wine of Ceretto’s Barolo offerings. The grapes are sourced from multiple vineyards across the appellation, as was common before the movement to single vineyard bottlings. Ceretto Barolo DOCG is a classic wine, like those from the turn of the century, when the concept of ‘cru’ was totally unknown to the region’s winemakers. Made from100%Nebbiolo grapes, the wine is aged for 30months in both large and small barrels to round and soften the tannins in the wine.

VINTAGE: ______

BAROLODOCG BRUNATE This 100% Nebbiolo wine is named for the prestigious Brunate cru from which these grapes originate. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel and is induced by indigenous yeasts. The process concludes with a maceration period of 10 – 15 days. Following malolactic conversion, which takes place in December, the wine spends 12 months in barrique (50% new; 50% second passage) followed by at least 12 more months in large casks of 25HL.
