Reviews 96 points Wine Advocate "This celebrated Barolo boasts a silky sheen and glossy character that transcends bouquet and mouthfeel. Wild cherry, lilac, iron ore and candied orange peel are revealed softly on the bouquet. The wine takes a few minutes to open before all those pretty little details come into view. Acidity is an important component of this graceful Barolo, as it ties together the fruit and heightens that sense of electricity and liveliness. (ML)" 94 points Vinous "...gracious, perfumed and very nicely lifted. An effusive, floral bouquet opens first, followed by a rush of red berry fruit. (AG)"

About Bartolo Mascarello
Maria Teresa continues the family's tradition of blending Nebbiolo grapes from various vineyards to produce a wine that truly embodies the essence of the Piedmont terroir. This unique approach sets Bartolo Mascarello apart from other wineries in the region that focus on single vineyard wines. In addition to Barolo, the winery also produces limited quantities of classic Italian reds such as Dolcetto, Barbera, Freisa, and Langhe Nebbiolo.
These Italian reds are highly sought after by collectors with an appreciation for traditional Nebbiolo. They are worth the wait; as wine critic Antonio Galloni attests, Maria Teresa Mascarello has taken the estate to "a level never previously seen." Bartolo Mascarello's commitment to tradition, coupled with Maria Teresa's expert winemaking skills, make the winery a must-visit destination for wine lovers and collectors alike.
