Ranked #7 of 170 2022 Nebbiolo from Barolo
A bright ruby to cherry red colour. Generous and fragrant aromas of raspberry and pomegranate, plenty of brown spice, mint, tobacco and sundry herbs in tow. It's pleasantly pulpy in the mouth, hints of chocolate and spice with the berry fruit, rounded and expansive, lavish tannins that are quite sleek, blood orange and spice colouring the finish that is of admirable length. There is lovely balance of the plush fruit with the classic Barolo structure. Excellent. Stephen Blandford, The Real Review

Massolino

Founded in 1896 by the enterprising Giovanni Massolino—he was the first to bring electricity to the town—the estate is based in and around the town of Serralunga d’Alba, one of the prime sub-zones of Barolo. Today, the keys of this historical estate belong to Franco and Roberto Massolino who work with gifted, ex-Vajra winemaker Giovanni Angeli. Behind Massolino’s rise to the apex of Barolo lies their remarkable collections of Serralunga vineyards, including choice parcels of such famous sites as; Margheria, Parafada and the legendary Vigna Rionda where the Massolino family is the largest holders with 3.5 hectares of vines (two are planted to Nebbiolo) between 40 and 50 years old. Outside of this commune, Massolino also tends vines in the great Parussi Cru of Castiglione Falletto. The high-altitude chalky hillsides of Serrralunga d’Alba, on the eastern edge of the Barolo DOCG, produce some of the most profound and long-lived Barolo wines. It is the home of great names such as Giacomo Conterno and Bruno Giacosa’s Falletto vineyard. The wines often have an extra stuffing of intense Nebbiolo fruit as well as a remarkable minerality that plays on both the freshness of the tannins and gives the wines a certain ferrous edge when young.
