Product Notes

The Agricola Brandini Barolo Cerretta is a resplendent Italian wine originating from the famed Piedmont region. Showcasing Nebbiolo grape's full-bodied magnificence, it paints the palate with layers of black cherry, forest fruit, and truffle nuances, flanked by sturdy tannins. This grand red wine fully embodies the term 'Barolo'; hinting at a dignified ageing in the cellar. With a brilliant garnet hue, spiced aroma, and an elegant, long finish, each sip is an invite to discover the vast Barolo landscapes. Its complexity suits harmoniously with robust meals, making the Brandini Barolo Cerretta a wine of warmth, richness and sheer indulgence.

Tasting Notes

On the nose, it opens after a short ventilation revealing notes of leather and eucalyptus, along with spicy and balsamic hints. The perception of the tannins is wide but not invasive, with a well governed structure and a calibrated and harmonious contribution od the wood.
