Marchesi di Barolo Barbaresco Riserva 2020

Marchesi di Barolo Barbaresco Riserva 2020 is a refined expression of Nebbiolo from one of Piedmont’s most prestigious appellations. Crafted by a historic producer deeply tied to the region’s winemaking identity, it offers the structure, elegance and aging potential that have made Barbaresco a benchmark for collectors and enthusiasts alike.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a transparent garnet hue with brick-tinged reflections, signaling both youthful brightness and classic Nebbiolo character. The nose is layered and expressive, often revealing rose petals, red cherry, dried herbs, licorice, tar, and subtle spice. On the palate, expect a wine with firm but polished tannins, vibrant acidity, and flavors of wild berry, sour cherry, tobacco, and earthy undertones. The finish is long and nuanced, with the kind of structure that suggests excellent cellaring potential over many years.

Production
Sourced from the hills of Piedmont, this Barbaresco Riserva reflects the cool-climate terroir of the Langhe, where marl, limestone, and clay soils help Nebbiolo develop fragrance, finesse, and tension. Harvesting is typically done with careful selection at full ripeness, and vinification follows traditional methods aimed at preserving the grape’s aromatic complexity and natural structure, followed by extended maturation to build depth and harmony.

Food & Serving
Serve at 16–18°C and consider decanting for 1–2 hours, especially if opened young, to allow the wine’s aromas and tannins to fully unfold. It pairs beautifully with truffle risotto, braised beef, game, porcini mushrooms, aged cheeses, and classic Piedmontese dishes such as tajarin with ragù or veal shank.
