    Producer

    The Massolino estate vineyards stretch across the Serralunga d'Alba hills, where the clay and limestone soils perfectly complement the Nebbiolo grape. The vines, some decades old, are cultivated with care, respecting the natural cycles. The temperate climate, with warm summers and harsh winters, allows for optimal grape ripening. Each plot is carefully selected to produce wines that reflect the diversity of the terroir, resulting in wines of unparalleled complexity and aromatic richness.

    Owner and history

    Today, the Massolino estate is run by the Massolino family, who carry on the family tradition with passion and dedication. Each generation has left its mark while respecting the legacy of their ancestors. The family is committed to producing high-quality wines, emphasizing authenticity and respect for the terroir. Their love of wine and their profound knowledge of the vines and the soil make them true artisans, dedicated to passing on their expertise to future generations.

    Vinification and aging

    The winemaking process for the 2017 Massolino Barolo Parussi is meticulous. The hand-harvested grapes are destemmed and crushed before being fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. This method preserves the freshness and aromas of the Nebbiolo grape. The wine is then aged for 24 months in oak barrels, a mix of French and Slavonian oak. This crucial stage allows the wine to integrate the tannins from the wood while developing its complexity. Before bottling, the wine is lightly filtered, ensuring exceptional purity and finesse.
