Note : Robert Parker 95/100
« Le Barolo Vigna Marenca 2008 est étonnamment souple et élégant. Des notes de cerise rouge, de fleurs fraîchement coupées, d'épices et de menthe prennent forme dans le verre dans un registre raffiné, tonique, rarement observé dans ce vin. Remarquable, à la finale longue et harmonieuse. Un soupçon de rose séchée et de cerises douces s'attarde dans le verre vide, c'est une démonstration éblouissante. Le Marenca a été vieilli dans une combinaison de fûts et tonneaux. » (Wine Advocate - Robert Parker)
