Marcarini's Barolo La Serra 1989 DOCG is a collectible wine, elegant and complex, embodying the tradition of the Langhe and the excellence of the Marcarini winery.
Produced exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes from the La Serra cru in the municipality of La Morra, this Barolo DOCG represents one of the noblest expressions of the Piedmont terroir. The 1989 vintage is considered historic for the area, with favorable climate conditions that allowed the grapes to ripen slowly and completely, giving the wine a deep structure and extraordinary aging potential. The Marcarini winery, operating for six generations, is renowned for its traditional approach and respect for the terroir. The La Serra vineyard, located at approximately 380 meters above sea level on magnesium-rich limestone and clay soils, gives the wine finesse, freshness, and silky tannins.
The Barolo La Serra 1989 presents a garnet color with ruby highlights and light orange nuances. The nose is ethereal, elegant, and persistent, with hints of violet, dried rose, licorice, and sweet spices. On the palate, it is long, intense, and harmonious, with fine tannins and an enveloping finish.
This wine is ideal for haute cuisine dishes, such as braised meats, game, white truffles, and aged cheeses, but it is also perfect for moments of meditation or as a collector's item for connoisseurs and enthusiasts.
