Massolino Barolo Parussi 2021

Massolino Barolo Parussi 2021 is a poised, site-driven Barolo from the heart of Castiglione Falletto, offering a more reserved and mineral expression in its youth. Built on the contrast between old and newer soils in the Parussi cru, it stands out for its elegance, structure, and a distinctly limestone-tinged character that reflects both place and pedigree.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this 2021 Barolo shows a youthful, restrained profile rather than immediate perfume. The aroma leans toward wild berries and subtle mineral tones, with the crushed limestone signature gradually becoming more expressive as the wine opens. On the palate, it is tight and focused, with a firm core of wild berry fruit, silky tannins, and a refined, elegant texture. The mineral edge adds lift and clarity, while the balanced 2021 vintage gives the wine the shape and harmony to age gracefully over the coming years.

Production
Parussi is sourced from Castiglione Falletto, one of Barolo’s most admired villages, where the interplay of different soil types helps shape the wine’s depth and finesse. The vineyard’s mix of old and newer soils lends complexity and a distinct mineral imprint, while the cru’s position in the center of the appellation gives it both structure and balance. Harvesting and vinification details were not provided, but the wine clearly reflects careful site selection and a style aimed at preserving freshness, precision, and the natural tension of Nebbiolo in a balanced vintage.

Food & Serving
Massolino Barolo Parussi 2021 pairs beautifully with rich, savory dishes such as braised beef, truffle risotto, roasted game, or aged hard cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for at least 1–2 hours when young to allow the aromatics and texture to fully unfold.
