The 2017 Barolo Brunate is one of the most expressive Barolos in this flight of 2017 Barolos from Ceretto. Dark cherry, rose petal, kirsch, mint and lavender fill out the layers nicely. The warmth and dryness of the year is evident in the wine's feel. Alessandro Ceretto opted to only use fruit from the oldest vines at Brunate, those that are 50 years old. Consequently, production is down by nearly 75%. Score: 93 Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com Maturity: 2025-2037 01 October 2021 |

Very aromatic with hazelnuts and hints of tar, orange peel and dried strawberry. Full-bodied, very tight and tannic with wonderful texture. Very racy and tight at the end. From organically grown grapes. Needs three or four years to soften. Try after 2023. Score: 95 James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com Maturity: 2023+ 30 July 2021 |

The 2017 Barolo Brunate is another very expressive wine with a dark fruit signature and extra concentration, thanks to this warm vintage. Layers of black fruit and plum cede to spice, licorice and spent embers. To the palate, the wine shows an open-knit fiber with solid fruit weight and a richly layered approach. Score: 94 Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2024-2043 17 June 2021 |
