Screwcap. Massolino’s two hectares of Barbera in a limestone-rich Serralunga vineyard are now complemented by fruit from Monforte d’Alba. The 2021 was fermented for 10 to 12 days in cement tanks and was raised in the same vessels for a short period before being bottled and released. The palate is so deep and pure, with some powdery tannins and vibrant acidity. The finish is tangy, perfumed and lingering. A super release and another super value. “Joyous” is a good term.

Reviews

“Very bright with a purple edge to the color. Lots of dark cherries, violet and licorice that extend to a fleshy, medium-bodied palate. I love the crunch and the succulence here. An excellent Barbera d’Alba that can be enjoyed in the next five years. Drink or hold.”

“The 2021 Barbera d'Alba is a joyous wine. Rich, supple and explosive, the 2021 offers up tons of jammy red/purplish fruit, lavender, spice, menthol and mocha. The purity of the fruit here is just remarkable. The 2021 was done entirely in cement. It's a gorgeous wine in every way.”
