Description
Discover the 2020 Massolino Barolo DOCG, a standout Nebbiolo from the heart of Serralunga d’Alba in Italy’s Piedmont region. This wine captures the essence of its terroir, emerging from a vintage that delivered wines with inviting accessibility and a lighter footprint than the robust styles of the prior year. At 14% ABV and in a standard 750 ml bottle, it arrives dry and ready to elevate your table.
Picture pouring a glass where garnet red hues shine through with that signature Nebbiolo clarity. The nose draws you in first—vibrant red cherries and raspberries dance alongside dried petals, subtle iron flecks, and whispers of pine resin mingled with fresh herbs. It’s an aromatic invitation that promises more.
Sipping reveals a wine that unfolds gracefully on the tongue. Supple layers of polished cherry lead the way, wrapped in refined tannins that build to a textured, almost tactile close. Delicate spice accents and mineral threads weave through, lending intrigue without overwhelming. Medium in build, it balances firm architecture with seamless integration, culminating in an extended, refined trail of ripe fruit laced with earthy echoes.
Crafted in Piedmont’s storied landscape, this Massolino Barolo speaks to those moments when you crave a red wine that pairs effortlessly with hearty fare. Imagine it alongside grilled red meats, wild game roasts, or dishes rich with truffles—the dry profile and structured poise make it a natural companion. Whether you’re building a collection or exploring Italy’s iconic reds, its approachable charm and depth offer satisfaction now while hinting at graceful evolution ahead.
James Suckling awarded it 94 points, and Vinous gave 92, underscoring its place among Piedmont’s elite Nebbiolo expressions. Secure a bottle of Massolino Barolo DOCG for your next gathering, where this Italian gem from Serralunga d’Alba delivers classic allure in every pour. Perfect for red wine lovers seeking that authentic Barolo experience without excess weight.
