Descrizione

After careful selection during the harvest, the Barbera grapes are taken to the cellar to start the vinification process which takes place, as for the maturation, in stainless steel tanks, perfect containers for preserving their natural fragrance. After a short period of aging in the bottle, the product is introduced on the market; this always between the spring and summer following the thousandth of production.

In the glass it shows an intense purplish-red color. The nose denotes intense fruity scents, characteristic aromas of the varietal. The sip is vinous and rich, tasty and fresh, in perfect balance with a delicately bitter finish.

A full-bodied and intriguing red wine, perfect throughout the meal. Recommended with first courses seasoned with earth sauces, rice and soups; also excellent with braised or grilled red meats and ideal with medium-aged cheeses.

Winery history

The Massolino family has been active in Serralunga d'Alba since 1896, a date established from archival records. Over time the estate has promoted historic vineyards in Serralunga and in recent years has also launched projects in the Barbaresco area, expanding its presence in the Langhe.

Production philosophy

The production approach aims to highlight the voice of the terroir and the grape rather than cellar interventions: careful vineyard management, winemaking that respects the raw material, and the goal of producing precise, expressive wines capable of conveying the distinct character of each cru, with particular attention to Nebbiolo.

Terroir and vineyards

The winery is located in Serralunga d'Alba, in the heart of the Langhe. The wines come from vineyards on hills well suited to Nebbiolo; the estate offers "classic" wines produced by blending multiple vineyards and crus that highlight differences in soil, exposure and vine age.
