Barolo Brunate DOCG 2019 - Poderi Marcarini

Self-confident and puristic, this exemplary family business in an idyllic balcony location on the outskirts of La Morra uses traditional Barolo, which experts unanimously recognize as exemplary. The style is trending in the Burgundian direction. Long fermentation time and classic aging in large oak barrels result in mild, “sweeter” tannins and a rather bright garnet red, which, however, proves to be particularly stable during aging. Since the 2015 vintage, Marcarini has been producing a basic Barolo with La Morra, so that Brunate is significantly upgraded as a fine selection. This more than does justice to this cult location, but it halves the availability of this Barolo veteran. Patience pays off thanks to Brunate's excellent storage potential.
