  • Oenologist: Marco Marsili
  • Bottles produced: 1.500.000
  • Hectares: 105
The Marchesi di Barolo winery was founded in 1806 in the heart of the Langhe, following the marriage between Carlo Tancredi Falletti and the French aristocrat Juliette Colbert di Maulévrier, who understood the importance of nebbiolo grapes, the production of which gave rise to intense, decisive wines that would improve with time. Xtrawine devotes special attention to Marchesi di Barolo wines, proposing bottles that have received important awards from Bibenda and belonging to the best vintages of 2012, 2013 and 2016. At the end of the 19th century, the Marchesi di Barolo winery was acquired by Pietro Abbona, and is now run by his nephew Ernesto Abbona, who can count on a vineyard estate of 65 hectares from which come high-quality wines that add to the winery's fame. Thanks to the climatic conditions and the fertility of the land, aromatic, pure and simple grapes are cultivated, which are processed in the cellar to the best of their ability thanks to proven experience in the field.

Wine making Maceration on the skins lasts 10 days, during which periodic pumping-over is carried out so that the must can gather all elements in the skins and gently extract the colour. Racking occurs only when all the sugar has been transformed into alcohol. Racked into specially made vitrified concrete vats with cork insulation, the wine maintains a post-fermentation temperature of about 22°C for a long time. In this way, malolactic fermentation starts and ends spontaneously over the next two months.
Aging Part of the wine is aged for about two years in 30- and 35-hectoliter Slavonian and French oak barrels. The remaining part is aged in small, 225-liter, medium-toasted French oak barrels. The wine completes its ageing in the bottle for 12 months before marketing.
