A genuine piece of Barolo history from the cru that started it all. In 1964 a young Elvio Cogno, cellar master at Poderi Marcarini in La Morra, became one of the first to name a single vineyard on a Barolo label: Brunate. That move made Marcarini the pioneer of cru Barolo. This is the 1966 from the same hallowed site, a traditionally made Nebbiolo now nearly six decades along. At this age the wine has shed its youthful structure for the dried fruit, leather, and forest-floor complexity that only old Barolo can offer. Bottle condition is paramount; decant gently and savor a window into a foundational chapter of the region.
