The Story
Bartolo Mascarello's Barolo from 2012, made by the most revered name in traditional Barolo. Maria Teresa Mascarello continues her father's methods exactly: a co-fermented blend of four crus (Cannubi, San Lorenzo, Rue, Rocche dell'Annunziata) aged in large neutral Slavonian botti. 2012 was a solid, classically proportioned vintage, giving a balanced Barolo with firm structure that is beginning to soften. Decant and either enjoy now or hold a few more years.
