Azelia Barolo Margheria 2019 is a profound single-vineyard wine from the Margheria cru in Serralunga d’Alba, one of Barolo’s most prestigious terroirs. Produced from old Nebbiolo vines rooted in limestone and iron-rich soils, this wine embodies the hallmark traits of Serralunga: structure, depth, and a mineral backbone that promises extraordinary longevity.
The 2019 vintage is widely regarded as one of the great recent years in Piedmont, offering balance, precision, and purity of fruit. A long, even growing season allowed the Nebbiolo grapes to mature slowly, developing layered aromatics and firm but refined tannins. Azelia’s traditional approach — including fermentation with extended maceration and long aging in large Slavonian oak casks — ensures that the wine remains a faithful expression of its terroir, with oak playing a supporting rather than dominant role.
Barolo Margheria is known for its intensity and age-worthiness, often requiring patience to reveal its full complexity. The 2019 release is no exception: it combines power with remarkable elegance, showcasing red fruit, spice, and earthy undertones framed by a structure that will evolve gracefully for decades. It is both a pure reflection of the Margheria cru and a testament to Azelia’s dedication to crafting authentic, terroir-driven Barolo.

On the palate, it is powerful yet refined, delivering concentrated fruit layered with tobacco, leather, and mineral undertones. The tannins are firm but polished, balanced by lively acidity.
