Azelia Barolo Margheria 2013
$100.00
Founded in 1920 by patriarch Lorenzo Scavino in the commune of Castiglione Falletto, Azelia stands as a testament to generations of Piedmontese winemaking. The estate benefits from a unique location where the two primary Barolo soil types converge, imparting both power and elegance to its wines. Today, Luigi and Lorenzo Scavino, the 4th and 5th generations, carry forward this legacy, blending tradition with modern techniques to craft wines of precision, structure, and finesse.
The 2013 Barolo Margheria exemplifies the estate’s mastery. Showing a typically high-toned, aromatic profile, it offers captivating scents of lavender, sage, mint, leather, and earthy nuances, all entwined with a core of dark stone fruits. Veins of bright acidity and salinity add energy and lift to the long, vibrant finish. The vineyard’s relatively high altitude and limestone-rich soils contribute to a brilliant, salivating expression of Barolo. Aged in cask, this Margheria delivers elegance, complexity, and the signature vitality that defines Azelia’s finest offerings.
