Bid on this bottle of 1959 Marchesi di Barolo "Gia Opera Pia" Barolo. Farming in the Langhe for six generations, Marchesi di Barolo is a part of the history of the region, and their "Gia Opera Pia" Barolo 1959 release showcases the terroir and expertise of the winery. They describe their location in Piedmont as "one of the greatest wine growing territories in the world. In 2014, these hills were declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site... Our winery is right in the heart of the town of Barolo, a small town surrounded by higher hills that protect it from bad weather and excessive flow of air. This peculiarity, combined with a predominantly clay and limestone soil, creates the ideal conditions for the Nebbiolo grape variety to fully express itself."
