The estate and the wine |
|
|
Nestled in the renowned limestone terroir of Serralunga, at the heart of Barolo, Schiavenza is a family-run estate spanning ten hectares and brimming with vibrant energy. The dedicated owners treat it like a precious gem, cultivating Nebbiolo with a confident, traditional approach that pays homage to the region’s heritage. |

Set on the limestone soils of Serralunga at an altitude of 360 meters, the 2018 Red Barolo Cerretta is a masterful expression of Nebbiolo, seamlessly balancing power and refinement. Aromas of morello cherry, rose, and floral notes intertwine with the delicate toastiness of its aging, creating an elegant and well-structured profile. This is a complex wine—bold but never overwhelming—with impressive density, exceptional persistence, and pure, intense flavors. Rated 94/100 by The Parker Guide. |
