Reviews:
- Wine Advocate: The 2018 Barolo Cerretta offers good focus with a sharp and linear style that gives way to forest berry, wild rose, rusty nail and crushed stone. The wine is extremely direct, and that's what sets it apart. In that sense, this wine is faithful to the characteristics of Serralunga d'Alba.
- James Suckling: Bright red fruit and a nut-cream note on the nose. Medium-bodied with very fine, firm tannins and a long, intense finish. Solid and focused.
Producer Information
Cantina Luigi Baudana is one of the smallest producers in the Serralunga d'Alba of Barolo, Piedmont. The family-owned estate is best known for its red wines made from the Nebbiolo grape. The tiny winery is situated in the village of Baudana, and there are just 4 hectares (10 acres) of vineyards. These all lie in Serralunga d'Alba, and most of the vines are in the cru vineyards of Baudana and Ceretta. Baudana makes a single-vineyard wine from each, albeit in tiny quantities – only around 300 cases a year of each. In 2009, Baudana introduced a Barolo Serralunga d'Alba, made from younger vines in both plots. The Baudana family is one of the oldest winemaking families in the region, and is prominent enough that it shares its name with the village and cru vineyard. Luigi Baudana ran the estate for over 30 years with his wife Fiorina, but as they had no heirs, they approached fellow Barolo producer G.D. Vajra to take over the estate. From the 2009 vintage the wines have been made and marketed by the Vajra family. The current portfolio is completed by the Langhe Bianco Dragon, made from Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling and a little Nascetta. This is sourced from a cooler plot within the Ceretta vineyard.
