Description
1983 Barolo – Marchesi di Barolo (Piedmont, Italy)
A fully mature, classical Barolo that favours perfume and savoury finesse. Brick-garnet with a broad tawny rim, it opens on dried cherry and cranberry, rose petal and violet, with cedar, leather and sweet tobacco, plus hints of orange peel, tea leaf and a gentle tar/balsamic lift. Mid-weight and silken on the palate: lively, old-world acidity carries red-cherry fruit, dried herbs and subtle undergrowth; tannins are fine and resolved. The finish is long and tapering with cherry skin, cedar spice and dried flowers.
Producer note: Marchesi di Barolo is one of the Langhe’s landmark houses, long associated with traditional large-cask élevage and prime Barolo sites around the town of Barolo—wines built for elegance, aromatic lift and graceful ageing.
Serve: 16–18 °C. Stand upright 12–24 hours; very gentle decant for sediment just before pouring.
Food pairing: Roast chicken with herbs, tajarin with butter and sage, porcini risotto, aged pecorino.
