About this wine

The 2017 vintage in Barolo was warm, but Mascarello’s Monprivato remains elegant rather than heavy. Aromas mix red cherry and strawberry with dried flowers, spice and an “elegant mineral” note picked up by critics. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe but not overdone fruit, supported by fine tannins and vibrant acidity. It should drink earlier than 2015 or 2016 but still has the stuffing for mid-term cellaring.
