2021 Marcarini "Brunate" Barolo

Notes

From one of the most historic and staunchly traditionalist estates in La Morra, the 2021 Marcarini “Brunate” is a stunningly pure and aromatic expression of this legendary cru. From the classic and structured 2021 vintage, this is a benchmark for soulful, age-worthy Nebbiolo. The nose is wonderfully lifted and perfumed, with classic notes of sour cherry, dried rose petal, and tar, woven with hints of licorice, savory herbs, and crushed stone. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied and elegant yet powerfully structured, with a core of pristine red fruit framed by firm, noble tannins and vibrant, energetic acidity. The finish is exceptionally long and resonant. A profound and contemplative Barolo that demands decades of patience.
