The Azelia 2020 Barolo Margheria (with 5,500 bottles released) shows a floral and fruity side of Serralunga d'Alba fruit. However, this expression also maintains a sense of those ferrous mineral notes that come with the territory. I find all these wines from Azelia in 2020 to be thin and simple in terms of mouthfeel, and I would recommend opening this bottle closer to the near term than not. The Margheria vines are 65 years old on average. Drink Date: 2025 - 2040

Our Tasting Note 7/8/26: If you are in the market for a DRINK NOW to 5 year cellar holder, this 2020 Margheria is for you. We just revisited this wine in early July 2026 and boy oh boy is it ready to rock. Classic Serralunga markers with a nose of dried rose petals, fresh mint and bright cherry. The palate is lively and expressive. Soft and well integrated tannins provide that classic structure the region gives Nebbiolo and it really pops in the glass right out the gate. Lorenzo is a big advocate of not decanting his Barolos because he likes to see how they evolve on the table in the glass surrounded by good people and good conversation and we completely agree. Drink now or HOLD 5+ years. Awesome stuff and an insane deal!

The classic! Sixty year old vines planted on two hectares of land in Serralunga. Southwest facing, Guyot-trained. Fermented with indigenous yeast, aged in large casks for 30 months. The Margheria is pursued in every vintage by loyal Barolo buyers for this is the greatest example of this Grand Cru Barolo site.
