Fresh and floral on the nose with freshly picked roses and vivd, ripe strawberries. Medium to full body, firm and silky tannins and a vivid, racy finish. Shows tension and focus for this ripe vintage.

This beautiful vineyard, located below the village of Treiso, towards the Pertinace hamlet, has been considered one of the best of the commune for more than a century. It is thought to be the natural continuation of the Nerve, which has the same orientation and position of the land.The vineyard is enclosed in a natural amphitheater and this formation creates a special microclimate very favourable to the vines, which is not affected by considerable height (400 meters in the upper-most part). Ceretto works 4.8 hectares of this cru biodynamically, which year after year gives us more and more expressive wines, extremely pleasing on the palate and remarkably dynamic. The main vinification processes of this wine take place in steel tanks on natural yeasts, after which it is aged in wood in partly new and partly second passage French oak barrels. The result is a full-bodied wine, full of soft tannins and rich in floral and fruity aromas. In its consistent structure, the Barbaresco Bernardot of the Ceretto winery reveals all the characteristics of Nebbiolo and shows itself as a pleasant wine to drink right away, but capable of taking on much more depth as time evolves.
