Merchant's description
Franco Massolino is renowned for combining forward-thinking techniques with a respect for tradition. Grapes are sourced from several vineyards in the commune of Serralunga d`Alba, from up to 60-year-old vines, resulting in structured and robust Barolos. They display a spectrum of perfumes on the nose, ranging from spicy to sweet, floral and fruit. The palate is a classic example of the region; full-bodied, muscular but elegant, with great ageing potential.
