Gian Piero Marrone 2006 Pichemej Nebbiolo (Barolo)
This Barolo with the vocally challenging name Pichemej reveals a dark and moody side that is reinforced by aromas of black fruit, plum, pressed rose, tar and asphalt. There’s a textured, earthy quality here followed by firmly drying tannins. Pair this wine with tender beef ribs.
