Prunotto Barolo Cerretta 2019
KShs21,880 incl. of VAT
This 2019 Barolo pours a brilliant garnet red with copper hues at the rim. The nose is deep and complex, unfolding with dried rose petals, wild cherries, and redcurrants, layered with nuances of licorice, leather, tobacco, and crushed herbs. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and firmly structured, showing tightly knit tannins and vibrant acidity. Flavors of dark berries, balsamic spice, and mineral earthiness evolve with each sip, leading to a long, savoury finish that speaks to its pedigree and aging potential.
This Barolo pairs beautifully with braised meats, truffle risotto, aged Parmigiano, or game dishes like venison or duck. It is a wine made for slow meals and contemplative moments, ideal for decanting and enjoying with rich, Northern Italian cuisine.
