Tasting Notes: The Massolino Barolo Margheria 2021 is a precise, mineral-driven expression from one of Serralunga d'Alba's great crus. It opens with vivid red cherry, dried rose, tar, and an iron-edged minerality that immediately signals its Serralunga origins. On the palate it is firm and linear, with fine-grained tannins, vibrant energy, and a long tobacco-tinged finish that speaks to impressive aging potential over the next decade and beyond.
Estate History: Massolino is a family estate founded in 1896 in the village of Serralunga d'Alba, now in the hands of the fourth generation. The estate's holdings across the Serralunga ridge — including the storied Vigna Rionda, Margheria, and Parafada crus — represent some of the most prized terroir in all of Barolo, farmed with a commitment to elegance and site fidelity that has defined the house for over a century.
