Parusso Barolo Mariondino 2015

96 points James Suckling: "Extremely floral and exotic on the nose with gorgeous fruit and wild aromas. Full body, chewy tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Just a hint of wood at the end. Shows focus and depth. Give four or five years, please. Try in 2024. (11/7/19)"

94 points Monica Larner (Wine Advocate): "[$75 list] Again, you get that ripe, raw fruit aroma from the 2015 Barolo Mariondino, with lots of plummy dark fruit and dried blackberry at the back. On the Parusso scale (one that always prizes intensity), this wine is mid-weight in approach, calling for something like a wild boar dish. There is also a note of sour cherry on the close. Drink: 2020-2040. (Jun 2019)"

93 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2015 Barolo Mariondino is richer, deeper and more powerful than it usually is, with an extra kick of volume and sheer breadth. The floral notes that are typical of this cool site on sandy soils emerge over time, but the 2015 remains a big wine. Dark fruit, licorice, chocolate and spice add to the wine's potent feel. Readers should expect an unusually large-scaled Mariondino. Drink: 2022-2035. (Feb 2019)"
