Luigi Pira - Barolo Marenca 2015 Magnum

Vinous : 94

' The 2015 Barolo Marenca is once again a wine of texture and volume, as it so often is, but there is also terrific aromatic nuance and layers of complexity to balance things out. Rose petal, sage, mint, sweet tobacco, licorice and wild cherry all run through this ample, super-inviting Serralunga Barolo. When I choose to drink a Pira Barolo, it is almost always Marenca. The 2015 is simply gorgeous. That's all there is to it.  '
