Piero Marrone 2016 Langhe Nebbiolo 750ml
A wine with an amazingly distinctive personality. You close your eyes and it takes you straight to the hearth of Piemonte. Intense and full. Rose petals and a rich mouth and long finish. Tobacco, tangy marmelade.

Located on the small hill of Annunziata, a hamlet of La Morra, the Marrone family winery enjoys a two-way view of the magnificent Barolo hills which reach the height of their splendour on these very slopes. Four generations of Marrones have devoted themselves to these vineyards and, over the course of time, they have developed a particular interest in wine tourism and hospitality. Denise, Serena and Valentina, the daughters of owner Gian Piero, are at your service to show you the slow mystery that turns Nebbiolo grapes into Barolo, the King of Wines. They organise lessons in winemaking, walks in the vineyards, guided tours of the winery and - to finish with a toast - tasting sessions accompanied by menus designed to perfectly match their wines.
