Note di degustazione
The 2013 Barolo is a wine of deep intensity and full-force flavors. In contrast to virtually every other Barolo producer, Parusso's wines strive to downplay the high acidity found in Nebbiolo and accentuate (by a large margin) the grape's noble tannins. This wine sees anywhere from 50% to 70% stem inclusion and the fruit goes through a mild dehydration process before fermentation. The wine's flavor and color profiles have been greatly enhanced as a result. This Barolo from a relatively mild vintage opens to a dark garner color and delivers bold aromas of blackberry preserves, Spanish cedar and spice. The wine makes a bold statement with impenetrable structure (especially now in its youth) and thick density. It needs to age. It is nowhere near approachable now.

Far from an easygoing entry-level wine, Marco Parusso's 2013 Barolo packs a serious punch. Dark cherry, plum, spice and sweet floral notes flesh out in an ample, enveloping Barolo endowed with serious density. The inclusion of whole clusters adds a level of exoticism and aromatic intrigue that gives the wine much of its unique personality.
