About this Wine

The Barolo DOCG "Brunate" by Mario Marengo represents one of the most refined and expressive interpretations of the Nebbiolo grape, grown in one of the most famous and esteemed Barolo crus, Brunate. This area, located between the municipalities of La Morra and Barolo, is renowned for its calcareous-marly soils which give the wines an extraordinary complexity and aging capacity. The Mario Marengo winery, faithful to a production philosophy that favors the quality and expression of the territory, produces a "Brunate" Barolo which is synonymous with elegance and power.

Visually, Mario Marengo's Barolo "Brunate" has an intense garnet red color, with reflections that tend towards orange as it matures. On the nose, it stands out for a complex and enveloping bouquet, with notes of ripe red fruit, such as cherries and plums, together with nuances of violet, dried rose, tobacco, spices and a light hint of leather, typical of the aging of Nebbiolo in barriques.

In the mouth, the wine expresses an extraordinary structure, with fine but firm tannins that integrate perfectly with a balanced acidity, guaranteeing a long tasting persistence. The aromatic richness perceived on the nose is also found on the palate, with an elegant balance between the fruity and more evolved notes, which conclude in a long and memorable finish.

Ideal in combination with dishes of great flavor intensity, such as roasted red meats, game, truffle-based dishes and mature cheeses, Barolo "Brunate" by Mario Marengo is also a meditation wine, which gives unique emotions to those who taste it with attention, gradually revealing its complexity and depth.

Wines of Piedmont

In the North-Western corner of Italy, with a backdrop of the visually stunning Alps, Piedmont is a great place to visit for wine tourism. It is also home to some of the most sought-after wines in the country.

Nebbiolo is the region’s most prestigious grape variety, a red variety not seen much in Australia. Wines made from this grape are powerful with remarkably high levels of tannins but a balancing acidity. The Piedmont region offers the grapes with a reliable autumn fog that provides a cooling effect which is particularly beneficial to the growth of Nebbiolo. This pre-harvest fog (“nebbia” in Italian) is actually where the grape’s name comes from. The fog is vital in that it prolongs the time spent on the vine and allows the grapes to achieve full ripeness.

The most famous examples of Nebbiolo come from the appellations (subregions) of Barolo and Barbaresco, known for their ability to age well, firm tannins and distinct smell of tar and roses. Barolo is a big tannic expression of Nebbiolo, while Barbaresco only about 15km away makes a more elegant style. Barolo wines are generally the more expensive of the two and are known to cellar for decades.

By volume however, Barbera is the most planted red grape in Piedmont. This grape makes a juicy, low tannin but high acidity easy-going red. Perhaps somewhat like a lighter style Shiraz.

While there are quite a few white varieties planted in the region, the most notable is Moscato d’Asti, made in a sparkling style in the Asti subregion.
