Ceretto - Barbaresco Bernadot 2020 (Pre-arrival) (750ml)
Ceretto Description
The inimitable single vineyard within the DOCG Barbaresco is known to produce wines that are rounder and more complex than other parts of the appellation. One of the favorite vineyards of winemaker Alessandro Ceretto, Alessandro feels this wine has a "larger, yet softer, tannin structure" due to the high amounts of clay found in the soil near the village of Trieso. While the 2020 Bernadot can certainly be appreciated when consumed young, this wine will also age well as its sweet tannins often morph into heady aromas of savory spice with age, making it a wine ready to drink now and one which will age gracefully over time.
Wine Advocate: 94 Points
The organic 2020 Barbaresco Bernadot offers a darker fruit performance with black cherry and blackcurrant. Like the other wines from this hot and sunny vintage, you taste the ripeness of the fruit and some background softness that comes with the territory (and the growing season). The Ceretto team delivers a deft hand, and you'll notice the etched sharpness and focus of the wine in terms of mouthfeel.
