Barolo DOCG 'Del Comune di Barolo' 2020 (750 ml.) Marchesi di Barolo
Barolo DOCG Del Comune di Barolo 2020 by Marchesi di Barolo comes from estate-owned vineyards on steep hillsides. Nebbiolo draws structure and mineral richness from clay-calcareous soils, while sand and silt provide fragrant, spicy aromas. The estate seeks a blend that reflects the harmony of the vintage. After 18 months in oak casks, it reveals intense notes of cinnamon, wormwood, tobacco and wild rose. The palate is full and elegant, with soft, enveloping tannins and a refined fusion of spice and boisé, ideal with braised meats, game and aged cheeses.

THE COMPANY
Marchesi di Barolo is a winery with a centuries-old history of over 150 years and still represents a symbolic and reference brand in the vast world of Piedmontese wine. The winery is located in the municipality of Barolo, a tiny village of less than 700 inhabitants where the extraordinary Castle of the Marchesi stands. This is a centuries-old palace that is the symbol and genesis of Barolo.
In 1807, Marquis Carlo Tancredi Falletti married the French noblewoman Juliette Colbert Maulévrier, a descendant of the Sun King. Juliette was the first to realize the potential of Nebbiolo grown in these lands and noticed how the use of wooden barrels added depth and longevity to the wine. After her husband's death in the late 1800s, without heirs, the estate was first managed by his wife and then taken over by Pietro and Ernesto Abbona, two young men who worked in the cellars at the foot of the castle.
After five generations, the Marchesi di Barolo are still led by the Abbona family. The Marchesi di Barolo winery spans 200 hectares and owns land not only in the Langhe but also in Roero and Monferrato. Marchesi di Barolo aims to create unique, high-quality wines that interpret the diversity of the places and are faithful representations of the vintage, territory, and grapes.
