"The Barolo DOCG Margheria comes from the calcareous soil with a slightly higher proportion of sand than in our other sub-areas, which has a strong influence on its character. It was produced for the first time in 1985 and has great ageing potential. The grapes come from our vineyard in the MGA Margheria in Serralunga d'Alba." Franco Massolino

Barolo Margheria is very refined and elegant, but also classically austere, like so many top wines of the 2019 vintage. Bright red berry fruits, wild flowers, mint, blood orange, rose petals and cinnamon adorn this very beautiful, nuanced Barolo. Margheria is medium-bodied, and despite its austerity, it is very pretty, not to mention incredibly inviting. It will be even better in a few years when the tannins soften. SUPERIORE.DE

"Rich garnet red colour with a fine shimmer. Presents itself on the nose with notes of graphite and salt varnish, then rose petals and raspberry. Full-bodied and dense on the palate, expands powerfully, then a little rough on the final." Falstaff

"Beautiful shiny medium ruby red colour. Firm, serious, mineral bouquet, cherry with notes of oatmeal and iodine. Multi-layered. Juicy, compact cherry with spectacular, crunchy tannins. Great, tactile fruit finish and fantastically balanced." Jancis Robinson

"The Barolo Margheria 2020 is a very beautiful wine that shows the softer side of the year. Dried herbs, menthol, incense, new leather and liquorice take shape in the glass. The 2020 is a soft, atypically open Margheria that will drink well with only minimal cellaring time." Vinous

"This Barolo from Margheria is a stunning expression of elegance, with captivating, high-toned fruit and delicate hints of strawberry. The palate is refined and graceful, with fine-grained tannins and delicious acidity enhancing the pure, precise flavours. This wine is a true embodiment of finesse and an outstanding example of the potential of this cru." Wine Enthusiast

"This ripe red wine is characterised by aromas of cherry, raspberry, plum and eucalyptus, with a hint of liquorice and iron. It firms up in the mid-palate, leaving a compact but complex finish that reflects the fruity and spicy notes." Wine Spectator

"I like the freshness and lively red-fruity character. Medium-bodied with firm, slightly chewy tannins. It is compact and structured with an exciting and lively aftertaste. Vibrant and bright, with hibiscus undertones in the orange and berry flavours. Try it from 2027, but it's already very nice now." James Suckling
