The Massolino Langhe Nebbiolo 2022 is an extraordinary expression of Nebbiolo, showcasing the versatility and depth of this iconic grape from the renowned Langhe region in Piemonte. Sourced from three distinct areas, the wine is a blend of fruit from Massolino’s younger vines in Serralunga, declassified Barolo fruit, as well as from the cool, chalky terroirs of the Cascina I Maschi vineyard in Monforte, which imparts a wonderful perfume and freshness. A small section from Alba, known for its lighter sandy-clay soils, brings a generous fruit profile to the mix, balancing the wine with depth and vibrancy.
This 2022 release is a gorgeous example of Langhe Nebbiolo, offering a pure-fruited and alluring profile that opens with fresh strawberry, cherry, violet, and anise. The wine has ripe, chalky tannins that lend structure and texture, while the finish is long, perfumed, and laced with graphite-like minerality. Aged in large Slavonian oak casks for 15 months, the wine shows a beautiful balance between its fresh, lively fruit and subtle oak influence. It is an elegant, hedonistic style of Nebbiolo that delivers both finesse and complexity, while offering excellent value for a wine of this pedigree.
Drink Window – 2026-2030
Food Pairings – Perfect with rich pasta dishes, game meats, roast white meats, and braised dishes. A great match for charcuterie and mature cheeses as well.
