Description

Barolo 2012
Riserva, Marchesi di Barolo
ocb
Bottle (6)


“This edition of 8,000 bottles is part of the estate's late-release program that lets us dig back into the Marchesi di Barolo historic cellars. From a hot summer that saw ruthless, dry heat and strong winds from Africa carrying the red sands of the Maghreb, the 2012 Barolo Riserva has evolved into a very nice wine indeed, with licorice, dried currant, dried mint and iron ore. This is a terrific step back in time. It ends a bit heavy, but it has aged quite gracefully, so enjoy it now.” (93 pts. Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, June 2021)


Estimate: $375 - $475.

Shipping Restriction: Please note that we cannot ship to addresses in Mississippi, so please bid accordingly.

Auction Type
Showcase Wine Auctions: These auctions are presented only online and bidding is only taken through our website. There are two phases of bidding during this type of auction: 1) Normal bidding: Bids are taken up until 6:00 PM CT the night the auction closes. 2) 5 Minute Ending: On a lot-by-lot basis, starting at 6:00 PM CT, any person who has bid on the lot previously may continue to bid on that lot until there are no more bids for 5 minutes. For example, if you bid on a lot during Normal Bidding, you could participate during Extended Bidding for that lot, but not on lots you did not bid on previously. If a bid was placed at 6:03, the new end time for that lot would become 6:08. If no other bids were placed before 6:08, the lot would close. If you are the high bidder on a lot, changing your bid will not extend the bidding during the 5 Minute Ending phase (only a bid from another bidder will extend bidding). If you are the only bidder at 6 PM, you will automatically win the lot at 6:05. Important: After normal bidding ends, you must be signed-on to the Heritage site to see the bidding option on lots where you qualify for extended bidding and you must be on an individual lot page to reflect the accurate time remaining for that particular lot.
