Tasting Notes

The 2019 Barolo Parussi is Massolino's sole Barolo from Castiglione Falletto. A wine of total grace and refinement, the 2019 is pure seduction. Freshly cut flowers, mint, sweet red berry fruit, orange peel and rose petal soar out of the glass. Readers will find an elegant, sublime Barolo that hits all the right notes. Don't miss it. 2027-2044

Antonio Galloni, vinous.com, January 2023

The Massolino 2019 Barolo Parussi (with 9,000 bottles made) has dark fruit and savory spice that make for a very firm and compact wine. This is an upfront and quite muscular expression with fruit from one of the northernmost sites in Castiglione Falletto. There is some firmness to the tannins that will require more aging time. This wine is set to hit the market in the fall of 2023. 2025-2045

Monica Larner, Wine Advocate, August 2023

Balsamic aromas of camphor align with earthy scents of tilled soil, new leather and dog rose on this full-bodied red. It’s firm, concentrated and savory, delivering ripe black raspberry, juicy Marasca cherry, baking spice and tobacco set against tightly woven, velvety tannins that envelope the rich flavors. Drink 2029 -2049.
