Massolino – Barolo Parussi – 2016

The history of the company began in 1896 when Giovanni, a tenacious and enterprising man, decided to produce wine believing in the profound affinity between the vine and the territory, thus investing in native vines. He follows his son Giuseppe who founded the consortium for the protection of Barolo and Barbaresco. Now in its fourth generation, the winery owns 36 hectares of vineyards and is internationally recognized despite the small quantities produced thanks to the purchase of some of the most suitable vineyards in the entire Barolo area. Among these, Vigna Rionda stands out, considered the cru of excellence in Serralunga d’Alba, thanks to the marly limestone soil it gives us impressive wines with a long aging potential. Parussi, mentioned on the western side of the municipality of Castiglione Falletto, a cru that will surprise us because it is able to give us wines of a never flowing elegance, a tasty tannin and a variety of the finest. Massolino owns the vineyards in south-east / south-west exposure on the top of the hill, perfect for the production of an extremely territorial and classic Barolo. An amazing bottle!
