Quite juicy and lively. Intense and still very tannic. Not sure the 2016 Riserva is more fun than the 'regular' 2016 at this point! (JR)

The M. Marengo 2016 Barolo Riserva Brunate is released in a tiny production of just 700 bottles. From an iconic vintage, the wine is beautifully balanced and intense with wild berry aromas that segue gently to spice, tarry smoke and powdered licorice. This vintage really shows the incredible depth and detail that the Nebbiolo grape is capable of rendering, especially in deft hands such as these. This is one for your cellar.
The 2016 Barolo Riserva Brunate is attractive, to be sure, but much of its fruit and overall intensity have been overwhelmed by the oak. This lacks the intensity and resonance of the best wines of the year. More importantly, Marengo has the fruit to make a great, great Barolo. That is the bar here.
