97

A vineyard historically owned by the family, with southeast exposure, amphitheater shape, calcareous soil. Nose of sour cherries, with touches of Valdostan mint and wild rose. The palate is dense and thick, with iodized- brackish tannins and a fruity return.

96 Falstaff Magazine

Brilliant, medium-dense ruby garnet. It opens with aromas of ripe plums, hints of dark bread crust, truffle, and wild raspberries. The tannins are compact and layered, beautifully intertwined with a sweet, creamy texture. Firm and structured, it finishes with a rich, textured feel. Otmar Kiem, Simon Staffler

96 Aldo Fiordelli - Decanter

After 30 to 36 months in big oak casks, this 2019 vintage of one of Serralunga's most celebrated MGAs shines for its restrained nose of Parma violets, wild strawberry, orange juice and a super-intense, stunning rhubarb root character. It's floral as well on the palate, elegant and refined, very classic, with polished, velvety tannins that are dusty on the finish. The structure defies time here; the potential is great.

95 Kerin O'Keefe - kerinokeefe.com

Enticingly fragrant, the Giovanni Rosso 2019 Cerretta starts off with aromas of woodland berry, wild rose, camphor and spice. It’s elegantly structured and smooth, delivering flavors recalling raspberry jam, licorice, almond liqueur and a hint of mocha. Polished, fine-grained tannins and fresh acidity provide support and balance. While it’s already almost accessible, it will also age well.

95 Jeb Dunnuck - jebdunnuck.com

The 2019 Barolo Cerretta is an attractive red with a supple perfume and a balanced sheen and purity. It displays elegance and grace, though it still has great Serrralunga structure. With the ripe, sweet tannins that are characteristic of these wines. This is a really wonderful wine that can be drunk now or over the next 15 to 20 years.
