Three sources here. First, Massolino’s younger vines in Serralunga—in other words, declassified Barolo fruit. Then, Monforte’s Cascina I Maschi (Massolino credits this cool, chalky site with giving the wine lifted perfume and freshness). And finally, a parcel in Alba on lighter, sandy-clay soils, bringing fruit generosity. The blend is roughly one-third from each of these areas, and there’s little doubt the sum of these parts brings even more finesse and early-drinking appeal to what has always been an outstanding Langhe Nebbiolo.

It is a pure-fruited, pretty wine (suggesting strawberry, cherry, violet and anise) with ripe, chalky tannins and a terrific, perfumed finish spiked with graphite-like minerality.

Vintage

2022

Food Pairing

Perfect with roast pork, chicken or duck or tomato-based pasta dishes.

”This is fruit-driven and doesn’t get weighed down by winemaking. It’s bright and flavoursome, strawberry, red cherry, peanuts, mint and dried flowers. Medium-bodied, juicy and lively, with a lick of emery board tannin, a delicious succulence to it, and such high drinking appeal, and the finish is fresh with something of a blood orange tang and good length. It’s a lovely glass of Nebbiolo and speaks of place. Massolino have pulled a rabbit out of the hat this vintage!”
