The color is intense ruby red with a tendency towards garnet. On the nose it is pervasive, with a wide range of spices, among which liquorice stands out in perfect harmony with notes of red fruit jam; hints of vanilla bean and sweet pipe tobacco emerge on the finish. The taste is rich and decisive, with a notable structure: powerful and elegant at the same time.

The Marchesi di Barolo estate encompasses approximately 430 acres of vineyards in the Langhe, some of the finest in Piedmont, including the prestigious Cannubi cru. The cellars are in the village of Barolo, overlooking the Renaissance castle of the Marchesi Falletti di Barolo. In 1929, local winemaker Pietro Abbona purchased the cellars formerly owned by the Marchesi and eventually acquired all their vineyard holdings as well. Today, Marchesi di Barolo remains a family business. Since 2006, the estate has been under the direction of Pietro's great-grandson and fifth-generation winemaker, Ernesto Abbona and his wife Anna, who have inherited a longstanding winemaking tradition and a love of the vineyards and its wines.
