‘The M. Marengo 2018 Barolo shows a lean and luminous appearance with delicate aromas of pressed rose, cassis, earth and a twist of orange peel. That citrusy note adds a lot of freshness and energy to the bouquet. The fruit blended here comes from the Serradenari, Boiolo, Fossati and Roncaglie vineyards in La Morra. 2024-2038’ – Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, 93/100
‘A straightforward, fresh red-berry nose. Medium-bodied. Racy feel to this, with very fine firm tannins and some good, fresh length. Best from 2023.’ – James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, 91/100
‘Marengo's 2018 Barolo is a classy, polished wine to drink now and over the next handful of years. Crushed flowers, mint, spice and sweet red berry fruit all grace this exquisite, nuanced Barolo from Marengo. Readers will find a delicious entry-level offering. 2022-2030’ – Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 90/100

| Producer information | The Marengo family is a small producer based in La Morra, Piedmont and has been producing Barolo since 1899. Their 1.5 hectare block of Brunate, planted in 1950, represents an incredible one-quarter of their vineyard holdings. The farm is currently run by Marco, after his father, Mario passed away in 2001. The philosophy of Marco is to respect what the vineyards give him, as much as possible. The work in the vines is more important to him than the work in the cellar. |
