Marengo Barolo Brunate Riserva | 2019 | 750ml

About This Wine

The Marengo family has made wine in La Morra since 1899 and farms only about 6 hectares, including about 1.2 hectares in the Brunate cru, held by the family for five generations. Their first Barolo labelled Brunate was the 1974 vintage. Marco Marengo runs the estate with his wife Jenny and son Stefano.

The Brunate Riserva is made in tiny quantities from the family's oldest, lower plot of Brunate vines and is released later than the standard Brunate.

Serving

Decant well ahead and serve with braised beef, truffle dishes or aged cheeses.

About Nebbiolo

Nebbiolo is a powerful yet pale red with cherry, rose, tar and dried herbs, searing acidity and formidable tannins built for aging. Its cool Piedmont home sharpens its tannic, aromatic profile.
