Complex, but approachable. This is an excellent Barolo. If you see this wine, buy it. — 5 months ago
March 2024. Solid, classic, very enjoyable Brunello. Have had 2 vintages if this wine now. 2014 here and the 2016 in a restaurant. This 2014 (not a great vintage year) was surprisingly very good. The 2016 was young,so we decanted. It was much better, as expected given the great vintage year ‘16 was. Look forward to having more of this! — 6 months ago
Quite garnet colour , terracotta rim, slightly younger looking than the Lovara, very fine sediment . Slight touch of leather , then spiced cassis , sous bois , coffee, grafite . On the palate quite good sweet dark fruits , with touch of soy sauce , leather , sous bois , dry spices . Good balanced, quite fresh acidity , soft tannins . Medium length and still showing really quite well . At the end of its drinking window so drink now and over the next couple of years — 3 months ago

Marcarini is often underrated. Not in the very top tier in Piedmont, but with age I’ve routinely found that the wines exceed expectations. Especially the La Serra bottling. This one is real treat — 25 days ago
