2017 Barolo, del Comune di La Morra, Marcarini, Piedmont, Italy

Description

With the 2015, Manuel decided to significantly reduce the volume of his two crus, to best express those great terroirs. What is no longer in the crus is now in what was his standard Barolo; it’s now exclusively La Morra, with all its heady charm and suave affability. It’s soft, smooth, floral and sensual, confident without being imposing. Drink 2021 - 2032.

About this wine

Nebbiolo

Nebbiolo is the grape behind the Barolo and Barbaresco wines and is hardly ever seen outside the confines of Piedmont. It takes its name from "nebbia" which is Italian for fog, a frequent phenomenon in the region.

Marcarini

Few views in Barolo can compete with the one from Marcarini’s terrace in La Morra. Encompassing most of the region’s communes and vineyards, one only has to look south-east to see Barolo’s modest size, cradled in the Italian Alps. It is fitting that Marcarini occupies this prime location; the winery is built underneath La Morra’s medieval watchtower, a signpost to the Marchetti family cantina that’s visible across the region.
