Mario Marengo 2005 Brunate Nebbiolo (Barolo)

Cellar Selection
Online Exclusive

The Brunate cru is famously celebrated for its sturdy, well-structured Barolos. The soil is a bit denser and richer here and the wines take on more concentration and power as a result. You’ll recognize aromas of wild berries, almonds, graphite, smoke and cola. The tannins are tight and firm and this wine will last many long years in the cellar. — M.L. (2/1/2010)
