Description
Marenca is a Barolo from Luigi Pira, made from Nebbiolo grown in Serralunga d'Alba. Serralunga is the Barolo commune known for firm, long-lived wines, and Barolo must age at least 38 months before release.
The 2020 benefits from air, so decant it for an hour or two and serve at 60 to 65°F. Braised beef over polenta, roast veal and tajarin with butter are classic matches. Bottles like this can sit in a cool cellar for another decade.
