A subtle nose, showing dried flowers and raspberries. Medium-bodied, with underlying fruit concentration that feels transparent and almost ethereal, supported by integrated, precise tannins that focus toward the finish. Drink or hold.

Presented in the estate's signature light cream label, the Massolino 2022 Barolo is a blend of fruit from Serralunga d'Alba, with vineyards in Collaretto, Briccolina, Broglio and Le Turne, together with a parcel in Castiglione Falletto. Aged for up to 30 months in large Slavonian oak casks, the wine offers an open-knit personality with generous layers of blackcurrant and boysenberry followed by earthy autumnal notes, licorice and baking spice. This is a classic rendition with medium- to full-bodied richness and the bold lines and extra concentration you expect from a warm-vintage Nebbiolo. Despite its broader frame, the wine avoids overripe flavors and remains remarkably composed. A lifted herbal note, almost minty in character, adds freshness on the finish. Production is 87,000 bottles.

A bright ruby hue, the 2022 Barolo blends fruit primarily from Serralunga with a portion from Bricco Ambrogio in Roddi. Aromas of cherry cordial, raspberries, crushed flowers, and sweet herbs emerge from the glass. Medium-bodied, it offers appealing purity, with sweet tannins, balanced fruit, and refreshing acidity. This highly approachable Barolo should drink well over the coming decade. Drink 2026-2036.
