The 2016 Ceretto Barbaresco DOCG is a genuine celebration of the Piedmontese winemaking tradition, capable of conveying the elegance and complexity of a unique territory. Sourced from vineyards cultivated with dedication and respect for the environment, this still red wine is made exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes, an authentic expression of the hilly Langhe region. The year 2016 was privileged in terms of climate, which gifted ripe fruit and extraordinary flavor concentration.
On the nose, the Ceretto reveals an intriguing bouquet of withered roses and black cherries, followed by delicate hints of spices, licorice, and a touch of roasting, all in perfect balance. On the palate, the structure is powerful yet not overwhelming, supported by silky tannins and a freshness that invites another sip. Long and persistent, the finish offers reminiscences of dark chocolate and wild berries.
It pairs beautifully with red meat dishes, such as braised and roasted dishes, as well as with aged cheeses, enhancing every bite. A wine that not only represents a territory but tells a story—a tale of unconditional love for wine and its land. Ceretto Barbaresco aims to provide an unmissable sensory experience, perfect for being enjoyed on special occasions or to enrich one’s collection of fine wines.
