Elio Sandri is one of Barolo's most coveted traditionalists, working 7.5 hectares at Cascina Disa in the Perno cru of Monforte d'Alba entirely by hand and instinct. Cement fermentation, long aging in giant old botti, no fining, no filtration, sulfur only at bottling. This Riserva from the Vigna Ceretta parcel in the strong 2019 vintage is a single-vineyard expression of his vision, dense and detailed Nebbiolo built for decades in the cellar. Production is minuscule, so this is a true collector's bottle.

"The 2019 Barolo Riserva Perno Vigna Ceretta is a new wine in this lineup. It is sourced from a southeast-facing parcel with Michet clone on marl soils that was planted in 2011. Dark and layered, the Ceretta offers up scents of leather, game, iron, crushed rocks, coffee and lavender, infusing the palate with gravel notes. The 2019 offers striking textural depth and density. Sadly, production is a mere 1,500 bottles in this debut vintage, but that is set to increase going forward. This is an incredibly distinctive Barolo from Elio Sandri." —Antonio Galloni
