This release is one of Giuseppe Mascarello’s flagship wines which comes from a single vineyard or ‘cru’ called Monprivato. This vineyard is located in the commune of Castiglione Falletto, known for producing exceptional Barolos. The 2010 vintage in Piedmont was characterized by excellent weather conditions, which allowed for optimal ripening of the Nebbiolo grapes. The resulting wines are known for their concentration, structure, and ageing potential.

Vinous
Mascarello's 2010 Barolo Monprivato shows good depth and volume in the glass, but the flavors are also a touch forward, which is a bit unusual for the year. Sweet red cherry, raspberry, mint, white pepper and orange peel linger on the delicate finish, all supported by silky, polished tannins. The 2010 is a bit more fully formed than it was a few months ago, but I don't find the pedigree of the best years, and I say that after having had the 1989, 2004 and 2008 in the days leading up to this visit.Antonio Galloni1st March 2015
