About Marchesi di Barolo

More than 200 years ago, the Marquesses Falletti and the former owners of the winery in the historic castle created the “wine of kings”: Barolo. One of the figures associated with the name Barolo since that time was also a pioneer: Pietro Emilio Abbona, an ancestor of today’s owning family, made the wine of his homeland and the Cantina Marchesi di Barolo famous worldwide. The wines from Marchesi di Barolo continue to live up to their great reputation today. They are incredibly powerful and long-lasting—and for good reason, they have received numerous international awards.

The Region

Piedmont in northwest Italy (“at the foot of the mountains”) lies at the southern foothills of the Alps. The climatic conditions are demanding: it is significantly cooler here—except in the Po Valley area—than in the rest of Italy. Short, dry summers are followed by misty autumns and very cold winters. This is a challenge that Piedmontese winegrowers have successfully met: alongside Tuscany, Piedmont produces most of Italy’s finest wines, with unmistakably full-bodied, multifaceted aromas that are attributable to these special climatic conditions. The red grape variety Barbera is dominant, followed by Dolcetto and Nebbiolo, from which the famous Barolo is made. The vines thrive between 150 and 400 m above sea level on a variety of soils—from clay, which produces a multifaceted bouquet, to lime-rich sandy soils that promote a powerful structure in the wine.
