Giuseppe Mascarello e Figlio, Barolo Monprivato 2007Place: Piemonte, Italy Grape: Nebbiolo Vibe: Cuddly Mascarello is a name that might be familiar, if you're of the Piemonte persuasion. Heres a Barolo that, for once, is available right in its sweet spot. Dried roses, tar, sandalwood. Pretty much every textbook Nebbiolo note is on full display. Give it time to evolve. Its both weightless and lingering on the palate. Go hard or go home. ABV: 14. 5%
