Product Description
95 points Wine Enthusiast
“A classic, vibrant expression of Nebbiolo, this fragrant red opens with compelling aromas of wild berry, crushed rose, iris, menthol and aromatic herb. Elegant and structured, the linear, savory palate delivers juicy Marasca cherry, wild raspberry, licorice and mint alongside bright acidity and firm tannins. Drink 2023-2029.”

“Rose petal, dried cherry, kirsch, mint, sage and licorice give the 2014 Barolo Margheria much of its beguiling, nuanced personality. Deceptive in its midweight structure, it packs a serious punch. The sinewy, potent Serralunga tannins need time to soften a bit, but I don’t think that will be an issue given how impeccably balanced the 2014 is in the early going. A bit of air brings out the wine’s explosive persistence and drive. A closing flourish of sage, tobacco and kirsch rounds things out in style. The only open question is how much time the 2014 needs, because it is clearly a gorgeous wine in the making.”
Jancis Robinson
“Lustrous and just mid ruby. Loads of minerality on the nose, slow to unfurl with perfumed raspberry. Vibrant and succulent – fantastic energy – dances over the palate with long, precise, firm tannins. Irresistible but deserves more bottle age. 17++/20 points.”
