"One of my favorite Barolos. Harmonious, complete and complex. They do not intend to represent the modern or traditional style, they simply take into account the expression of the terroir." This is how Pedro Parra, the world's greatest terroir expert, aptly defines the essence of Marco Marengo's wines. Marco was a biochemist, but was asked by his father Mario to take over the tiny winery below the family home in La Morra, and some plots in the best crus of Barolo. Everything is still handcrafted by Marco, his wife Jenny and son Stefano, to the delight of hardcore barolistas.
