"Broglio is Schiavenza's largest cru holding, with 1.5ha owned here. The vineyard is located at 360 meters above sea level with a south-east exposure. Due to a bit more clay in the topsoil, Broglio is also the most productive site in the Schiavenza range. To achieve balance and to let the Serralunga terroir speak clearly, this vineyard requires more labor than their other sites, with multiple passes of canopy work, bunch-thinning, and green harvest. Of the four Barolos, Broglio can often be the one that is most aromatically and structurally "ready" at a young age, perhaps even more so than the estate's Serralunga bottling." —winemaker

"The 2018 Barolo Broglio is an imposing wine. Iron, dried herbs, white pepper and orange peel give the Broglio a very distinctive and exotic profile. There's good energy that builds through the mid-palate and into the finish. Overall, this is an impressive showing. Give it a few years to come together." —Antonio Galloni, Vinous

"The 2018 Barolo Broglio (with fruit from Serralunga d'Alba) is rich and savory with dark fruit and plenty of spice at the back. The effect is large in scope but also a bit monotone with general, broad-brush aromas. Dark and purple fruits segue to cured tobacco and sweet spice that are contrasted against a savory tone of rusty nail or iron ore." —Wine Advocate

"Red berries and tobacco-like spice on the nose and palate. Medium-bodied with a tight, silky feel and a good core of bright fruit and spice. Quite racy this year with a lighter tannin framework. Try from 2023." —James Suckling

"Noble and generous, glory of old Piedmont, a wine suitable for long aging, Barolo is the absolute master of the table. It conquers the palate with the conviction of strength, harmony and fullness and holds its sway at length. Barolo Marcenasco has ancient origins. There are historical documents from the "Rigestum Comunis Albae" that bear witness to the cultivation of the Nebbiolo wine in the "Marcenascum" area already back in the 12th Century. Barolo Marcenasco is smooth, balanced, elegant and faithfully, best to drink between 6 to 12 years after the vintage." —winemaker

Wine Anthology Team Review- With grapes grown at the foot of the Alps in northern Italy, the soil is filled with quartz and metamorphic rock that holds warmth from the sun and adds to the unique characteristics of the grapes.
You'll find light and dark fruit flavors here complimented by a spice character that rides into the finish quite nicely.
Enjoy with Past Primavera with grilled Chicken. Enjoy!
