Giuseppe e Figlio Mascarello Barolo Monprivato 2011 is a full-bodied red wine produced from Nebbiolo grapes in the Barolo appellation of Piedmont, northern Italy. The flagship wine of this celebrated producer, Monprivato is made from fruit sourced from a single vineyard site located in the village of Castiglione Falletto and is among the most long-lived and complex wines produced in the Barolo cru. "Mauro Mascarello`s 2011 Barolo Monprivato is soft, open-knit and surprisingly ready to go today. Dried cherry, anise, crushed flowers, mint and sweet tobacco all find support in a pretty fabric framed by silky, inviting tannins. The 2011 is not a huge Monprivato, but it does offer good balance in a restrained, mid-weight style, even by this wine`s historical standards. I have seen Monprivato gain considerable depth and intensity in bottle. It will be interesting to see what happens here. In 2011, Mascarello did not bottle their flagship Riserva Ca`d` Morissio. Instead, all the fruit went into the straight Monprivato." Vinous, 2016
