Pertinace Barbaresco Marcarini 2018 750ML

Barbaresco Marcarini is an exceptional red wine crafted by Marcarini, exemplifying the excellence and tradition of the Barbaresco appellation. It presents a deep garnet-red color in the glass, captivating the eye. The nose is greeted with enticing aromas of ripe dark fruits, blackberries, cherries, and a touch of spice. On the palate, it offers a powerful and concentrated experience, with layers of blackberry, plum, dark chocolate, and a hint of licorice, intertwined with hints of tobacco and toasted oak. The well-integrated tannins provide structure and depth, while the vibrant acidity adds freshness and balance. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering impression of fruit, spice, and a touch of earthiness.

A small cooperative of only 15 growers, Pertinace is located in the village of Treiso in the heart of the Barbaresco zone. Founded in 1972 by Mario Barbero, the winery works with growers who tend to some of the nest crus in this commune, including ‘Nervo’ and ‘Marcarini’, for the production of Barbaresco. Their members also cultivate other famous local varieties, such as Barbera and Dolcetto, as well as Moscato d’Asti. All totaled, the growers manage 170 acres of vines in this area.
