Bartolo Mascarello Barolo (artist label) 2020 (OCC/6)
Tasting Note
'Maria-Theresa Mascarello’s 2020 Barolo is quite classical in style, size and shape in this vintage, tipping the scales at its customary fourteen percent alcohol. The youthfully complex bouquet offers up a beautiful blend of cherries, a touch of pomegranate, woodsmoke, fresh oregano, gamebird, a fine foundation of soil tones, camphor and roses. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, transparent and impeccably balanced, with a beautiful core of red fruit, ripe, seamlessly integrated tannins, good acids and outstanding precision on the long, complex and utterly refined finish. Like all of Maria-Theresa’s Baroli, this is an utterly classical bottle that will demand fully two decades before it starts to blossom, but will be a stunning and very long-lived wine once it starts to soften up its undercarriage of tannin.'
