M Marengo Barolo 2019 750ml

The 2019 Barolo shows medium-dark concentration with a bouquet that includes interesting notes of dried flower, bramble, crushed stone, pomegranate and redcurrant. I notice that this vintage from the Marengo family, with their modern boutique winery just outside the town of La Morra, is a richer, bigger wine in 2019. It will require a few more years of bottle age for sure. The fruit used is a blend from the four vineyard sites farmed by this family in La Morra. Production is 10,000 bottles.
Drink Date 2025 - 2040
