Wine description
The Mario Marengo's Barolo "Brunate" is an elegant and classic expression of Barolo that comes from 80 years old vineyards. It comes from the famous Brunate cru in La Morra where the Marengo family has been making wine since 1899. Brunate is known for giving Nebbiolo grapes great perfumes, it's never too tannic and always rich in sugars. A taste full of ripe fruit supported by tertiary references originating from the two years aging in small barrels.
