One of the headline estates in Serralunga d'Alba, the Ettore Germano 2019 Barolo Cerretta shows a rich personality with sturdy fruit weight and concentration. The Cerretta is painted with broad brush strokes of dark fruit, blackberry, spice and tarry smoke. This bottle will appeal to those who enjoy more oomph and power in their Nebbiolo, possibly with a pairing of boiled beef and a side of mint sauce. Some 17,500 bottles were made.
