MARCHESI DI BAROLO BAROLO SARMASSA (1993) 750ML/14.5% X3

The 1993 Marchesi di Barolo Sarmassa is a traditional, aged Barolo featuring a deep garnet red color, likely showing significant brick-orange hues due to its age. It offers intense aromas of wild rose, licorice, spices, leather, and tobacco. On the palate, it is full-bodied, elegant, and structured with firm, though now well-matured, tannins and a lingering finish.

Nose: Complex bouquet of violet, rose, truffle, cinnamon, licorice, and hints of pine resin or tobacco.

Taste: Full-bodied, elegant, and robust with velvety but present tannins.

Pairing: With 8–30+ years of aging potential, this 1993 vintage should be fully mature, best paired with braised meats, game, or truffles.

The 1993 vintage in Piedmont was somewhat challenging due to damp conditions early in the season, which required careful selection, but this specific Sarmassa cru is known for producing powerful, structured wines.
