Distributor notes "First produced in 1911, the fruit for Massolino's classic cuvée comes from seven hectares of prime-sited Serralunga vineyards. The most important of these-Briccolina, Collareto, Broglio and Le Turne-are dotted around the town itself; Le Turne borders Margheria, while Collareto lies next to Vigna Rionda. We are talking quality real estate. The 2021 also includes a little fruit from Massolino's Parussi Cru as well as some declassified Vigna Rionda! Vine age varies from 10 to 55 years. Half of this Barolo was fermented in large wooden cask, the other half in concrete. The final blend matured for up to 30 months in large, Slavonian oak casks."

"The Massolino 2021 Barolo reveals a shiny ruby color and a core of dark fruit. Beyond the plummy fruit is tar, licorice, pressed flower and campfire ash. This wine has a pronounced savory side, yet it all fits squarely into a very delicate and finessed delivery. This is a pretty example of the vintage." 94 points, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate
