The 2017 Barolo 'Marenca' offers wonderful aromas of ripe cherries, red fruits and hints of blueberry which are followed by intense fresh violets, leather, tobacco, licorice, sweet spices and some initial hints of vanilla, which eventually begins to fade away with air. It is impeccably structured with fine-tannins that grip a firm hold on the long lingering finish. This continues to evolve with each second in the glass. Today, the Marenca shows incredible potential, but this will ultimately require some additional bottle age.
