The 2020 Massolino Barolo Parussi is a beautifully powerful and refined Barolo from the renowned Parussi cru in Castiglione Falletto, where Massolino combines its traditional Serralunga style with the elegance and richness of this celebrated site. The nose reveals red cherry, dried rose and blood orange layered alongside sweet spice, tobacco and earthy mineral notes, giving the wine impressive depth and complexity.

On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with finely structured tannins, vibrant natural acidity and beautifully concentrated red berry fruit. Layers of cherry, cranberry and savoury spice are balanced by mineral tension and subtle earthy depth, finishing long, poised and finely detailed with excellent balance and ageing potential.

Ben’s Recommendation:
The 2020 Massolino Barolo Parussi is a superb cru Barolo - powerful, savoury and beautifully refined with outstanding structure and finesse. Perfect with truffle dishes, braised beef, roast game, mushroom risotto or aged hard cheeses. Enjoy now with decanting or cellar gracefully through 2050+.

About the region

Piedmont · Barolo

Piedmont, or Piemonte, sits in Italy's north-west under the Alps. Its great grape is Nebbiolo, which ripens late, is often picked in autumn fog, and reaches its fullest expression in the Langhe hills at Barolo and Barbaresco. Those wines are pale and firmly tannic when young, and turn to tar, dried rose and truffle with age. Alongside them Barbera and Dolcetto supply the everyday reds, and Moscato d'Asti the sweet, lightly sparkling whites.
