Massolino Barolo
| Vintage: | 2019 |
|---|---|
| Description: | The history of the Massolinos and their wine became entwined with the history of Serralunga dAlba in 1896, when Giovanni founded the estate. Serralunga dAlba marks the eastern border of the Barolo zone; soils here are among the oldest, with the wines being among the most tannic, as the roots of the vines must go deep for nutrition. These are classically structured examples of Barolo that offer superb concentration and remarkable longevity. Speaking of the Serralunga Barolo style, local producer Franco Massolino says, I think Serralunga has something special in the soil. It yields wines of complexity, deepness and elegance. Wine Advocate 94 Points - "In the light cream-colored label, the 2019 Barolo is elegant and contained, showing a very focused and linear style that makes a great impression and awakens the senses. There is wild cherry, blue flower and crushes stone backed by balanced freshness and tannins. The wine ages in large Slavonian oak casks for 30 months, and 85,000 bottles were released. |
