Giacomo Conterno Cerretta Barbera d'Alba 2023

Giacomo Conterno’s Cerretta Barbera d'Alba 2023 is a compelling expression of Barbera from one of Piedmont’s most revered names. Creamy, rich, and expansive on the palate, it brings together red cherry and plum fruit with flashes of blood orange and pomegranate, making it a beautifully layered wine with real presence and pedigree.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the wine shows a vibrant, inviting profile with deep fruit concentration and an elegant sense of lift. The nose opens toward red cherry and plum, joined by brighter accents of blood orange and pomegranate, while the palate is broad, textured, and enveloping, with a long, resonant finish that unfolds gracefully over time. This is a Barbera with impressive depth and balance, and it should continue to evolve nicely with cellaring.

Production
Cerretta is a distinguished vineyard site in Piedmont, and this Barbera benefits from the sort of careful site selection and meticulous farming that define Giacomo Conterno’s approach. The wine is produced to emphasize purity of fruit, texture, and terroir expression, with vinification aimed at preserving freshness while building depth and structure.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs wonderfully with rich, savory dishes such as braised beef, roast pork, veal, mushroom risotto, and aged cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C; decanting for 30–60 minutes is recommended if enjoying it young, to help the wine open fully and reveal its layered aromatic profile.
