Ceretto 2011 Barbaresco D.O.C.G.




 
Ceretto 2011 Barbaresco D.O.C.G., $29.49-$49.99, 93 points, poured a dark Red Rubin color with a broad clear wine ring and light draping.
Aromatic red fruit, citrus, orange pekoe tea, and a floral vibe were outstanding.
Medium-bodied with good acidity and firm drying tannins (going to be too coarse for some) faithfully translated the aromas onto the palate along with hints of plum and leather.
Finished decidedly long on a large 15% alcohol inspirited spiciness with hints of violets and oak.
Paired fine with my rare spiced-rubbed Angus 'cowboy' rib eye steak.
