It is historic vineyard, as is confirmed by old land registry archives dating back to 1666. Orientation: Southwest.

The 2020 Barolo Monprivato is without question one of the finest wines to emerge from these cellars in many years.

About the Producer

With the world increasingly enchanted by the magic of classical Barolo, the Giuseppe Mascarello estate’s Barolo Monprivato has emerged as one of the region’s crown jewels. Such acclaim is long overdue for a winemaker whose track record dates back more than six decades. But it was also inevitable: now that Giovanni Conterno, Bartolo Mascarello, and Beppe Rinaldi are gone, he is the last of his generation of great, classically inspired Barolo winemakers. Like his fellow icons, Mauro is a traditionalist dedicated to long fermentations and aging in old botti grandi .
