Production Notes
Production Notes

Producer Information
Producer Information
This 23-hectare estate has been in the Massolino family since 1896. Winemaker Franco Massolino has done a wonderful job of marrying change with respect for tradition, setting Massolino apart from many of the younger producers in Barolo today. The vineyards, with vines up to 60 years old, are in the commune of Serralunga d’Alba: the source of some of the greatest, most structured and longest-lived Barolos.
Their Barolo has an attractive aromatic dimension and is as good as Barolo gets at this price.
