Giovanni Rosso is a family-owned estate who have been growing grapes in the Comune of Serralunga d'Alba since the 1890's, including the Crus of Cerretta and Serra. During the 1980's, Giovanni Rosso restructured the vineyards with the aim of producing the best possible wines, and in 2001, Giovanni's son Davide took charge of winemaking, following his own mantra "wine should be a perfect copy of its terroir".
The fermentation lasts some 25 days for the Giovanni Rosso Barolo Serra according to the vintage with daily pumping over of the wine mass with délestages at half of the period (fermentation in concrete tanks). The aging is conducted in 25 or 50hl large barrels of Fontainebleau Forest oak from 18 to 36 months according to the vintage.
On the 2018 vintage the nose is vivid, powerful and neat; austere at the beginning. Wild berries, coffee, licorice, violet and mint. Good balsamic tones. A powerful and structured palate. Savoury with clear tannins and a very long finish. Pair this wine with long cooking red meats, perfect with deer roast.
