The 2022 Il Cerreto (a west-facing hillside site below the winery) Barbera d’Alba is an aromatic wonder, with notes of spearmint, sage, dried thyme, underbrush and cedar wood. The palate delivers stunning savoury intensity, with a sprinkling of black sea salt ingrained in the ultra-fine tannins. A long, resonant finish carries black tea, soaring saline acidity and crunchy fruit through to a seemingly everlasting close.
