Winemaking Notes: Barbaresco Marcorino comes from two small plots of a single cru (Marcorino). The Nebbiolo vines are roughly 80 years old. The harvest is always manual with great attention to sorting in the vineyard. The pressing takes place mechanically, allowing a gentle press, which expels the whole stalks and does not crush the seeds. The alcoholic and malolactic fermentations take place in steel tanks. Maceration with the skins varies according to the year, generally around 25 days. The wine moves into large Slavonian (Garbellotto) and Swiss (Suppiger) oak barrels (both untoasted) where it ages for about 15 months. Bottling follows, always in the waning moon phase. No filtration or clarification are carried out, in order to maintain the structure of the wine perfectly intact.

Tasting Notes: Bright and transparent garnet red color, floral, small red fruits, sweet spices and undergrowth. The tannin texture is dense and silky, with structure and depth that is elegant and long-lived. Long finish.

    The 2022 Barbaresco Marcorino shows what a special site this is. More than anything else, I admire the wine's energy and overall vibrancy, qualities that are rare in 2022. Black cherry, gravel, incense, licorice, cloves and lavender build effortlessly in the glass, framed by brisk acids and supporting beams of tannin that give the wine its shape. The Marcorino is vivid and super-expressive from start to finish. A closing note of citrus adds an exotic flair.
