The Barolo DOCG della Tradizione from Marchesi di Barolo offers an elegant, restrained profile, suited to those who prefer structured but not aggressive red wines. On the nose there are aromas of ripe red fruit, light spice notes and earthy nuances that contribute to a sober complexity. On the palate the wine shows present but harmonized tannins, a balanced body and acidity that supports the sip and invites a slow tasting. The color is clear and deep, with reflections that invite inspection; in the glass the bouquet evolves, revealing hints of undergrowth and light balsamic notes that enrich the aromatic profile.
It pairs well with flavorful dishes while remaining versatile, suitable for both important dinners and more informal occasions. The persistence leaves a lasting impression of roundness and finesse without overly intrusive elements. Marchesi di Barolo offers here a traditional expression, aimed at those who appreciate wines with a recognizable but not overpowering character. It delivers a good balance between structure and finesse, ideal with meats, aged cheeses and elaborated dishes.

Historic winery in Barolo (Langhe, Piedmont) with 19th‑century cellars, producing Barolo single‑vineyard crus including Cannubi. ([marchesibarolo.com](https://marchesibarolo.com/en/history))
The story
The historic cellars date to the era of Marchesa Giulia di Barolo; modern Barolo production was shaped in the first half of the 19th century. In 1929 Pietro Abbona took over the cellars and the estate received international awards during the 20th century. Since 1973, at Gino Veronelli's invitation, historic Barolo crus such as Cannubi have been vinified separately. ([marchesibarolo.com](https://marchesibarolo.com/en/history))
Production philosophy
Focus on terroir and respect for historic crus: hand harvest with grape selection in the vineyard; selective destemming and targeted maceration (15–18 days); fermentation at controlled temperatures (about 24–26 °C). Aging includes a period in vitrified concrete tanks and roughly two years in wood (first year in French barriques with a balanced percentage of new wood, second year in large Slavonian oak barrels), followed by bottle rest. (description pertains to the Barolo Cannubi). ([marchesibarolo.com](https://marchesibarolo.com/pdf/en/cannubi.pdf?utm_source=openai))
Terroir and vineyards
Cannubi is the long, gradually rising hill at the center of the Barolo appellation; soils from the Serravallian and Tortonian periods (Sant'Agata fossil marls: clays, fine sands and calcareous components) give structure, finesse and longevity. The Langhe area is part of the UNESCO World Heritage site (2014). ([marchesibarolo.com](https://marchesibarolo.com/pdf/en/cannubi.pdf?utm_source=openai))
