The most powerful wine in this grouping is the Ceretto 2017 Barolo Prapò that draws its fruit from a historic site in Serralunga d'Alba. These results are compact and rock-solid, with a deep well of plummy black and purple fruits packed tight at the core. Mineral notes of iron ore, crushed brick and dark licorice fill in the rear. Despite the hot and dry growing conditions, the wines from Serralunga d'Alba show very well across the board in 2017.

Vanilla, hay and floral aromas segue to strawberry and cherry fruit flavors in this slim, compact red. Combines refined, grainy tannins with vivid acidity and the finish is long, if austere for now. Best from 2025 through 2040. 40 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
