From the same legendary cru, this 2015 shows magnificent garnet with ruby reflections and a composite, rich bouquet of balsamic, menthol, sweet spices, tobacco, mountain hay, and underbrush. The palate is imperious and noble with warm, velvety character and a long, intense finish. Traditional methods—4-week maceration, 2 years in Slavonian oak—honor Marcarini's staunchly classical approach.

Antonio Galloni

"The 2015 Barolo Brunate is powerful, dense and tightly wound. That should not be much of an issue, as the 2015 will be released later than normal, a path Marcarini will take gradually over the next few years with the goal of releasing the wine two years later than they had previously. Dark and hulking in the glass, the 2015 is clearly not in the mood to show all of its cards today. Iron, smoke, menthol, game, dried rose petal and soil tones give the Brunate its brooding, inward personality." —Antonio Galloni

"Subtle aromas and flavors of strawberry, cherry, rose and spice mark this elegant red. Fluid and firmly structured, just tipping toward the dry side on the tannic finish. Succulent. Best from 2022 through 2033."

Kerin O'Keefe

"From one of the most celebrated vineyards in the denomination, this stunning red opens with enticing scents of rose, camphor, aromatic herb and a whiff of sandalwood. The succulent, elegant palate delivers juicy Marasca cherry, crushed pomegranate, licorice and sweet tobacco framed in taut, polished tannins. It’s nicely balanced, with fresh acidity. Drink 2022–2032." —Kerin O'Keefe
