the kind of bottling that almost never surfaces

Single-vineyard Napa Cab Franc from vines planted in 1978

A wine that rewards both patience and a decanter

What emerges is a wine of balance—creamy and buttery with stone fruit and citrus complexity

The palate is scented

Ceretto, Barolo Brunate, 1989 new product the kind of bottling thatBrunate is one of Barolo's most celebrated crus, a powerful, perfumed La Morra site, and Ceretto farms several hectares of it. The 1989 vintage is widely regarded as one of Piedmont's greatest, a year of near perfect ripeness and structure, which makes this a benchmark bottle now in graceful maturity. Expect classic Nebbiolo power softening into tertiary complexity. From a private cellar, so storage varies; decant carefully and savor.
