The 2008 Barolo Margheria shows the muscle and depth of Serralunga. Layers of dark red fruit, spices, menthol and licorice flow from this textured, deep Barolo. The style remains understated in the spirit of the 2008s here, but with a little more of the richness typical of Serralunga. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2028. This is a beautiful set of 2008s from brothers Franco and Roberto Massolino. The 2008s here show the delicate, finessed side of the vintage. Importer: Domaine Select, New York, NY; tel.

This is chock full of tobacco, underbrush and menthol notes, but also strawberry and raspberry flavors. Trim and racy in character, with muscular tannins. A traditional Barolo that needs time or a lot of air to show its best. Best from 2016 through 2035. 150 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
