History
Marchesi di Barolo carries the founding story of Barolo itself. In the early 1800s Marquis Carlo Tancredi Falletti and his French wife Juliette Colbert, who married in 1807, drove the creation of the dry, structured, cask-aged wine now called Barolo, in cellars in the village. After the childless Falletti line ended, the estate passed to the Opera Pia Barolo charity and then to the Abbona family, who continue to make classic single-cru Barolos from Cannubi, Sarmassa and Coste di Rose.
