The 2022 Massolino Barbaresco is a beautifully refined and elegant Nebbiolo from one of Piemonte’s most respected traditional producers. Crafted in a classic style that highlights fragrance, finesse and savoury complexity, the wine captures the purity and charm of Barbaresco while retaining impressive structure and ageing potential. The nose reveals red cherry, dried rose and wild strawberry layered alongside orange peel, sweet spice and delicate earthy notes, giving the wine lift and sophistication.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with fine, chalky tannins, bright natural acidity and beautifully focused red berry fruit. Layers of cherry, cranberry and savoury spice are balanced by mineral freshness and subtle earthy depth, finishing long, poised and finely textured with excellent balance and elegance.
Ben’s Recommendation:
The 2022 Massolino Barbaresco is a superb traditional Barbaresco - elegant, savoury and beautifully detailed with excellent finesse and structure. Perfect with truffle dishes, roast duck, mushroom risotto, braised meats or aged hard cheeses. Enjoy now with decanting or cellar through 2045+.
