The estate and the wine |
|
|
A legend of Barolo and Piedmont, Giuseppe Mascarello stands as one of Italy's most prestigious names. Founded in the late 19th century, this historic, family-run estate has remained true to tradition, employing gentle, environmentally respectful methods without any artificial interventions.
Boasting a remarkable vineyard heritage across 15 hectares, it notably includes 6 hectares of the famous Monprivato, a prestigious cru almost exclusively owned by the estate. Added to this are ideally situated plots and a precision-driven expertise inspired by the greatest Burgundies. This is why its wines have captivated enthusiasts worldwide, making them highly sought after. Owning a few bottles is both a challenge and a privilege. |

After more than six years of aging, the 2017 red Barolo Monprivato is starting to reveal all its secrets. This elite wine, born in the Monprivato area of Castiglione Falletto, continues to deliver immense energy, complexity, and aromas. It's particularly marked by a very open floral tone today and captivating black fruit accented with subtle smoky touches and tobacco. In this rich vintage, it showcases finesse and freshness, already very approachable but capable of aging gracefully for years. With great persistence, it offers the quintessence of Barolo! Rated 96/100 by Parker. |
