This is mature Barolo in magnum from Giacomo Conterno, one of the greatest names in all of Piedmont. Cerretta is the cru Roberto Conterno acquired in 2008, a prized Serralunga d'Alba parcel; the 2010 is among the first vintages from these holdings, and 2010 was a legendary Barolo year. Conterno's traditional approach means long aging and wines built for the very long haul, and the magnum format slows things down even further. Two decades on, this is just stretching its legs. Decant generously and pour with reverence.

Antonio Galloni

"A much more overt, powerful wine, the 2010 Barolo Cerretta races across the palate with explosive fruit and tons of pure, unbridled energy. The Cerretta is an immediate, voluptuous wine with so much fruit that the tannins of the vintage are nearly buried. It will be fascinating to see how Conterno’s 2010s age. The Cerretta is shaping up to be magical. Bottled only in magnums." —Antonio Galloni

More about Giacomo Conterno

The Piedmont legend. Giovanni Conterno opened a tavern in 1908, made Barolo for it, and the first Riserva changed everything. His son Giacomo took over in 1934, and the estate's been making world-class Nebbiolo ever since. Monfortino Riserva is aged seven years minimum in huge botti—old school done perfectly.

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Braised beef, wild game, truffle dishes, or aged hard cheeses.

Tasting Profile

Dried cherry, tar, rose, leather and earth. Full-bodied and powerful, with firm tannins softening and bright acidity. Enormously long finish. Will keep going for years.
