Maretti Barolo 2020

Maretti is a new name in Barolo with their first offering from the already legendary 2016 vintage. 2020 is another very fine year. The fruit is sourced from the Castiglione Falletto sub-region, one of Barolo’s best. The colour is the typical red/ochre – even young Barolo is rarely deeply coloured. The nose gives us the usual suspects when it comes to the aromas – earthy notes, leather, coffee grinds, dusty roads, red fruits and mushrooms. It offers a subtle texture and medium length, matched with bright acidity, serious grip and a dry finish. Now for eight to ten years. And good luck finding a good Barolo for a price below this.
