James Suckling 92pt

Very floral with orange blossom, iron, cedar, and dried spice. Medium body, firm and slightly lean in the middle palate. Firm and racy. Lightly chewy. Needs a couple of years to soften.

Vinous Media 94pt

The 2020 Barbaresco Bernardot is a super-classic Barbaresco from Treiso. Dried cherry, spice, tobacco, leather, incense and cedar all grace this understated, exquisite Barbaresco. Time in the glass brings out compelling inner sweetness and perfume. This is such a gorgeous wine.

Wine Advocate 94pt

The organic 2020 Barbaresco Bernadot offers a darker fruit performance with black cherry and blackcurrant. Like the other wines from this hot and sunny vintage, you taste the ripeness of the fruit and some background softness that comes with the territory (and the growing season). The Ceretto team delivers a deft hand, and you'll notice the etched sharpness and focus of the wine in terms of mouthfeel.

Wine Spectator 92pt

Broad and expressive, delivering cherry, plum, earth and licorice flavors. Punctuated by lively acidity, this holds together nicely through the expansive finish.

by Wine Spectator, 2024

Description

This splendid vineyard, located under the town of Treiso, returning towards the Pertinace hamlet, has been considered for more than a century among the best in the municipality. It can be interpreted as the natural continuation of the Nerve, with which it shares the orientation and position of the land. The vineyard area is enclosed in a small natural amphitheater and this conformation manages to create a particular and favorable microclimate for the vine that is not affected by the considerable height (400 meters in the highest part). Ceretto works in biodynamic agriculture 4.8 hectares of this cru that year after year gives us more and more expressive wines, characterized by an incredible pleasantness and remarkable dynamism.

Estate

Among the infinite rows of vines that run across the undulating hills of Piedmont are the four wineries of Ceretto, a wine and spirits company in its third generation. Founded by Riccardo Ceretto in 1937, the highly respected firm is now run by his sons, Bruno and Marcello (dubbed the “Barolo Brothers”) who in the 1960s began raising Ceretto’s profile and expanding its holdings. Now their sons and daughters are at the helm of the Langhe DOC company, which holds a total of 120 hectares of land that are the birthplace of an array of elegant still wines, sparkling wines, dessert wines, and spirits.
