TASTING NOTE: Marchesi di Barolo has been a major contributor to successful dining for more than five generations. This wine is crafted from grapes sourced from rocky marl soils and has more weight and presence than perhaps typical for the area, but not at the cost of the delicately framed floral and mineral notes that characterize this style. Bright and tangy green fruit with lemon and lime, a snap of grapefruit and some spritz. This fresh, long wine will be a fine addition to a meal featuring seafood. (Vintages panel, April 2018) |
