Barolo from the heights of Serralunga d’Alba. Massolino’s classic Barolo is a benchmark of the region, first bottled in 1911 and still drawn from seven estate sites surrounding the village. These chalky, high-altitude slopes sit on the eastern edge of the appellation, producing Nebbiolo of structure, perfume, and longevity.
The 2021 vintage is built from vineyards including Briccolina, Collareto, Broglio, and Le Turne, with vine age averaging 40–50 years. Fermented in upright oak vats, then aged 30 months in large Slavonian botti, it captures both the power of Serralunga terroir and the clarity of modern organic viticulture. Franco and Roberto Massolino, with Giovanni Angeli (formerly of Vajra), continue to refine the style—balancing tradition and contemporary precision. The result is a Barolo that shows its pedigree young, yet has the backbone to age gracefully for decades.

Rich and savoury with dark fruit, tar, liquorice, pressed florals, and campfire ash—all delivered with finesse
Intense and smoky, with floral and citrus notes, red fruits, and gentle spice. Medium-bodied with chewy but supple tannins.
Wild strawberries, violets, tarragon, and liquorice on the nose; plush red fruit, tangy minerals, polished long tannins. Elegantly composed.
Massolino is one of the most revered names in Piemonte, known for producing exceptional Barolo and Nebbiolo wines that express the unique character of the region’s vineyards. Founded in 1896 by Giovanni Massolino, the estate’s legacy has been built on a rich history of innovation and dedication to quality. Giovanni, a visionary who brought electricity to the town of Serralunga d'Alba, laid the foundation for what would become a celebrated estate in one of Italy's most prestigious wine regions.
The estate is now under the guidance of Franco and Roberto Massolino, with the winemaking led by Franco’s son, Sebastien. Sebastien has played a key role in driving the estate forward since he took over the operations in 2006, introducing organic farming practices and refining the winemaking process to showcase the pure expression of their terroirs. Massolino’s commitment to quality is evident in every bottle, from their prestigious Barolo to their Nebbiolo-based wines, which offer unparalleled balance, elegance, and depth. Today, Massolino continues to be a family-owned winery, with Sebastien and his team working tirelessly to uphold the tradition of excellence and precision that has defined Massolino for over a century.
At Massolino, the philosophy is rooted in a deep respect for the land and the grapevine, with a commitment to preserving the integrity of their terroirs while enhancing the natural characteristics of each vintage. Sebastien Massolino and his team embrace organic farming practices, prioritising sustainability and environmental stewardship to ensure that each wine is a true reflection of the land from which it originates. The use of minimal intervention winemaking methods allows the vineyard’s potential to shine through, creating wines that are both expressive and balanced.
In the cellar, Massolino adopts a hands-off approach, allowing nature to take its course with as little manipulation as possible. Fermentation occurs with native yeasts, and the wines are aged in a combination of new and old oak, ensuring that the fruit remains the focal point. The estate produces a range of wines that offer both finesse and power, capturing the essence of Barolo’s iconic terroirs with precision and elegance. The wines of Massolino are a harmonious blend of tradition and modernity, showcasing the estate's dedication to quality, purity, and authenticity, while also embracing the evolution of winemaking in the 21st century.
Wild strawberry, rose petal, liquorice, tobacco, and hints of iron and truffle.
Red fruits layered with citrus zest, spice, and mineral depth, carried by lively acidity and polished tannins.
Lingering notes of cherry, herbs, and savoury earth with fine, persistent structure.
