Marchesi di Barolo Combo 2010

The wine is racked in cement tanks, which are lined with fiberglass and isolated by cork to maintain the post-fermentation temperature of 22° C (72° F) for an extended period. In this way, malolactic fermentation starts spontaneously and is completed rapidly. In order to enhance its richness and allow the various components to blend perfectly for a fully-expressed, long-lasting wine, Barolo Riserva ages three years in the traditional large Slavonian oak barrels, which contribute to making this wine harmonious and balanced and to enhancing the elegance of the bouquet. 

Barolo Riserva is the ideal companion for egg pasta, ravioli and tajarin with tasty sauces such as game ragout and truffles, red meats, roasted or braised meats and game. It pairs beautifully with sheep and goat’s milk cheeses and mildly-seasoned cheeses. Enjoying this wine, at the end of the meal with a tea biscuit makes for a curious combination. When aged for a long time, it is a magnificent meditation wine.
