Marchesi Di Barolo Tradizione Barolo 2021

Marchesi di Barolo Tradizione Barolo 2021 is an elegant, historically grounded expression of Nebbiolo that represents the traditional style of blending across premier Langhe sites. Pouring a beautiful garnet red with subtle ruby reflections, the wine opens with an intense and persistent bouquet of ripe red cherries, dried plums, and wild raspberries, lifted by scents of wild rose, licorice, and fragrant oriental spices. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, delivering a balanced and harmonious core of red fruit flavors seamlessly framed by tightly wound, graceful tannins and a lively natural acidity. Having aged in traditional large Slavonian oak barrels, it preserves the authentic character of the terroir, concluding with a savory, persistent, and beautifully structured finish.

Food Pairing: Pairs wonderfully with roasted lamb chops, rich mushroom risotto, beef pot roast with root vegetables, braised venison, or aged Pecorino cheese.
