The Azelia 2018 Barolo Cerretta is a bold and powerful expression with dark fruit, grilled herb and ferrous notes of rusty iron that stand out strong in this hot vintage. The wine tastes firm and almost salty on the palate with long, polished tannins. This bottle is a shiny gem in this estate portfolio.

The 2018 Barolo Cerretta is another wine in this range that comes across as dried out and lacking fruit, with only modest site expression. In 2018, the Cerretta is decidedly fleeting, with modest complexity and not much in the way of depth.
