    Giuseppe Mascarello, Barolo, Monprivato, 2010

    Castiglione Falleto vineyard that is one of the finest, most hallowed plots in the whole of Barolo. A very steep south west facing vineyard with a very white limestone based soil that gives profound, mineral wines. The 2010 is a beauty. Ethereal, fresh and intense, fine –boned yet strong with it, beautifully clear flavours of plum, damson, cherry and rose. Vital and Seductive. Spellbinding. Aged for 36 months in large used wooden cask.

    The 2018 Barolo Monprivato is gorgeous. Aromatic and gracious, the 2018 is silky, expressive and very nicely balanced. The 2018 is a bit light and ethereal, as Monprivato is these days, but the tannins are impeccably balanced and all the elements are beautifully put together. Crushed red berry fruit, cinnamon, spice, dried flowers and orange peel lend nuance throughout. This is a fine effort in a highly irregular year.
