Massolino Barbaresco DOCG Albesani 2020
Here is Massolino's first single vineyard wine from Neive in Barbaresco. Albesani MGA, which is a corner of the iconic Santo Stefano, is the field where Dante Scaglione, as a consultant, has been the man behind Bruno Giacosa's absolutely fantastic Barbaresco wines.
Fortunately, Dante Scaglioni is also a consultant for Massolino, and how many people know this field better than Dante?
Massolino has 2 ha from Albesani. The sticks are approx. 50 years old and stands 230 meters above sea level.
This wine is produced in a completely traditional way. After long fermentation in Slavonian oak, the wine has matured for 18 months in a large Slavonian oak cask.
The wine exudes great elegance, and you are met by the scent of red fruits from the light wine. The wine is deep and complex at the same time, and it really shows off the Albesani terroir at its best.
The quantity of this wine is unfortunately extremely limited.
Produced according to organic principles.
