Description

The Giuseppe Mascarello winery is one of the wineries with the most history and tradition in the entire Langa; the winery was founded in 1881 by Giuseppe when he bought a plot of land in the commune of Monforte d’Alba. In 1904 Maurizio, Giuseppe’s son, bought the Monprivato vineyard in Castiglione Falletto, one of the most beautiful cru in the area, famous for giving very elegant wines but nevertheless with a great aging potential.
It was in this vineyard that a number of nebbiolo da Barolo vines were planted, grafted with the rare michet clone, famous for giving more intense aromas and sweetness to nebbiolos. To this day, the same michet clone is used for Barolo Monprivato and the reserve Ca’ d’ Morissio. In the following years production has expanded to Barbera and Dolcetto as well as Nebbiolo and Barolo, but always grown in excellent vineyards with the best exposures.
The style is always very classic, with the exclusive use of only large Slavonian oak barrels for aging and minimal intervention in the vineyard with treatments and very low yields ( about 60 to 65 quintals of grapes per hectare ).
