4/29/2024 - lukeintowine wrote: 94 points

Very much like its sibling the Parafada, but it seems the volume here is turned up a notch.

Less elegant but of the same quality.
Preferred the Parafada because of the elegance.
Entering its drinking window.

Excellent - Outstanding. (94-95)

Light on its feet, pretty and elegant, slight reduction.
Not terribly early to drink this.

One of my favorites, if not the favorite in a great line-up!

Excellent - Outstanding! (94-95)

3 hr decant, thanks to other contributors’’ comments. Primary nose notes quite sharp, but it was well integrated after we waited. Camphor, liquorice, menthol? - all back of tongue but good acidity on the palate. Really interesting and subtle flavour/ texture combinations, with good structure.

Medium ruby. Med plus aromas of cherry jam, sour cherry, cranberry juice, cassis. Dry, high acid, high alcohol, med plus velvety tannins, med finish. A lot of ripe fruits and candy characteristics that might come from carbonic. Not very complex and overripe for my liking. Alcohol is a bit too much too. Some bitterness on the palate. Drink now. Maybe off bottle?

2013 Massolino Barolo

Nebbiolo more

4/18/2024 - ShakinSwedens wrote: NR

Day 1, muted nose that opened after 30 minutes giving a little floral terracotta, ruby red colour with no significant signs of age. Fairly classic Barolo palate, a little shrill and high pitched but decent with food, mainly red fruit, really lovely fine and firm tannic structure. 90 points but no more.
Day 2 this now has loads of complexity in the nose! Heady and inviting. The palate has first spice (a touch of clove and cardamom?) and then depth where the fruit has turned darker- forest fruits and tar, rounder even smoother tannins with less prominence but still present. Probably 93 or 94 on this showing.
Hold or ensure it’s opened very early and given the chance to breathe slowly.

2009 Massolino Barolo Parussi

Nebbiolo more

4/17/2024 - wino_tim wrote: 88 points

Medium garnet fading to a slight amber rim with only a tiny amount of sediment. On the nose this is somewhat quiet, though elegant and perhaps a touch somber, with aromas of dried red fruits, dried roses, worn leather, loamy earth and a touch of oak spice. Medium to full bodied on the palate, with medium+ acidity, a somewhat tight and compact texture for the vintage, and straightforward dried fruit and spice flavors. There's nothing wrong here, but there's also not much to get excited about.

Pure, yet savory, with a stony, mineral punch to the orange peel, strawberries and dried herbs. I love the clarity and the tautness on the palate, with elegant but gutsy flavors of minerals and fruit, together with firm tannins that show Barolo etherealness and power at the same time. Already approachable.

2010 Barolos at Terra Rossa with NLWTS (Terra Rossa, Upper Street): Dark ruby. Pretty dark fruited. Super youthful palate; coarse, burley tannins. Some black fruit and stewed red fruits. Feels nowhere near ready; all potential and not much pleasure at this stage. 90++

I found this to be richer, heavier than you would typically expect in a barolo, however the fruit and tannin structure was certainly there suggesting this needs more age in order to balance the fruit with the structure. Solid now - should improve in 5+ years. Wait.

4/1/2024 - oenanthe Likes this wine: 91 points

An attractive pale to medium red, a shining quality to it. Nose a class act, cherry and rocky herbs, quite deep. As you would expect it is high in acid and the tannins are present and correct but never overwhelming. Light red fruit on the palate, an earthern quality that feels very burgundian, but this has a strong and structured core to it. Grip! It's ready, but only after a lengthy decant - about 4 hours prior to serving in this case. So it will probably keep for a reasonable amount of time. If you have the 2016 I'd open this. If you have the 2018, I'd open that as I've read lots of reports about early-drinking and approachability, but equally this is extremely lovely in 2024.

Still too early. Medium garnet colour. Classic tar and roses nose with some red fruit. Medium/full bodied. Lively acidity but still quite tannic. Long finish. Palate still feels young and needs time to develop. I’d wait a while before trying again.

Light cranberry and pomegranate fruitiness on the nose at first. Later come rose, tar and tobacco aromas.

Powerful and very elegant on the palate. Juicy touch but a dry finish with well-integrated tannins. This is in a good place but should also be able to hold at least 5 years.

Duft av kirsebær, mørke bær, mandler, hint av kjøtt. Blåbær, solbær, kirsebær, begynnende sopp, fremtredende lange tanniner, fin syre, ok lengde, bra konsentrasjon. Fin nå, men kan med hell ligge en del år til. 92-93p

The one with Luca Roagna (Teochew Paradise): Old school Nebbiolo expression that should put a smile on your face - in time to come.

Massolino's VR plots for me needs quite a bit more time to really show its beauty and this was a little too young for my liking. Dark fruit, roses, and cedar opens the bouquet with chocolate, cedar, unriped strawberries and black plums on the palate. Good fruit concentration amidst a brick wall of tannins. There is good potential here and a sense that this could be a great barolo but it wasn't it today for me.

Keith's Italian Wine Dinner (Osteria Langhe - Chicago IL): Old, old school style in every respect. This comes across as a bit disjointed, needing more time to harmonize, but it is almost 30yo.
