Critics scores
89 Robert Parker
The 1999 Barolo Brunate shows ample roses, licorice, and resin in its aromas and tarry flavors with much chocolate and sweetness of fruit on the palate. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2016.
86 Wine Spectator
Slightly decadent, with plum and meat character. Cleans up with air in the glass. Full-bodied, with fine, silky tannins and a medium finish. Slightly one-dimensional and funky. Best after 2007. 2,330 cases made. ?JS
Producer
Ceretto Aziende Vitivinicole S.r.l.
A great appreciation for the terroir, art and wine has united and driven the Ceretto family for years. As the largest vineyard proprietors in Piedmont, the Ceretto family owns over 160 hectares mostly in the Langhe and Roero regions. Their estate stretches across the prestigious DOCG areas of Barolo and Barbaresco. Their four properties are each devoted to the production of specific wines. Single-vineyard Barolo wines in Bricco Rocche of Castiglione Falletto, single-vineyard Barbaresco wines in the Bricco Asili vineyard in the village of Barbesco, local Langhe and Roero wines in Monsordo Bernardina of Alba, and Moscato wines in Santo Stefano Belbo of I Vignaioli Santo Stefano. In addition to the family’s commitment to make elegant wines, their passion for modern art has pushed them to become the first in Piedmont to substantially invest in the image of their wine. From their bottles and labels, to their overall packaging, Ceretto is a step above the rest.
