Tasting Notes
"The 2019 Barolo Brunate is a fleshy and hearty Nebbiolo with ample structure and staying power. The bouquet offers dark fruit, candied plum, blue flower, spice and rusty mineral. There is a hint of rosemary sprig or forest bramble as well. Brunate ends with almost metallic-like notes that are characteristic of this vineyard cru, and the wine has plenty of structure to carry it through more years of bottle age."
97 Points - Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate, August 2023
"Classy, superior wine off the top; the nose delivers an ambitious blend of fruit, mostly red and very ripe but still fresh, high quality oak influence, just a touch of sweet spice, and fragrant herbs and flowers in a complex ensemble. The palate is fleshy and full, mouthfilling, with abundant, thick velvety tannins and excellent depth and length. Top notch, structured and ageworthy Brunate."

The Producer
Marco Marengo
The Marengo family founded this estate back in 1899. Currently, it's skillfully managed by the owner, Marco Marengo, alongside his wife Jenny and their son Stefano, who is a skilled wine technician. Although the vineyard covers just 6 hectares, 1.2 hectares are situated in Le Brunate, a grand cru in La Morra (among the Langhe area's finest crus), and another hectare is in Bricco delle Viole, a significant cru in the town of Barolo. These two vineyards have been in the Marengo family for five generations. The inaugural Barolo vintage with the Le Brunate label dates back to 1974, while Barolo Bricco Viole has been labeled as such since the 1997 vintage.
Marco, with his extraordinary palate, provides a unique tasting experience, initially in the small, cluttered cellar in La Morra, and now in the recently constructed cellar (utilized for vinification since 2011). Marco's philosophy centers on respecting the vineyards' offerings as much as possible, emphasizing the importance of vineyard work over cellar work. In addition to the exceptional Barolo Brunate and Barolo Bricco Viole, Marco crafts a foundational Barolo from four La Morra vineyards, a Dolcetto d’Alba, a Barbera d’Alba (aged for 10 months in French oak barriques), a Nebbiolo d’Alba (from an old vineyard in the Roero zone), and a Barolo Riserva.
