Its soils—rich in limestone, iron, and minerals—are famed for yielding Nebbiolo of remarkable depth, perfume, and longevity. Reserved exclusively for their Riserva bottling, this vineyard is considered Massolino’s crown jewel, the purest expression of Serralunga terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2019 vintage is the product of meticulous, traditional winemaking: a 25–30 day maceration, followed by 42 months in large Slavonian oak and a further two years of bottle ageing before release. The result is a Barolo of profound complexity and finesse—at once powerful and graceful, tightly coiled yet already expressive. This is a wine to cellar, evolving over decades into a benchmark expression of the appellation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e NOSE\u003cbr\u003e – Perfumed and complex\u003cbr\u003e Wild rose, red berry, dark spice, tobacco, balsamic camphor, and hints of mint and liquorice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePALATE\u003cbr\u003e – Sculpted and powerful\u003cbr\u003e Layers of raspberry, cranberry, and cherry alongside savoury spice, leather, and mineral lift.
