Massolino, Parussi Barolo 2019

97 points Vinous
"The 2019 Barolo Parussi is Massolino's sole Barolo from Castiglione Falletto. A wine of total grace and refinement, the 2019 is pure seduction. Freshly cut flowers, mint, sweet red berry fruit, orange peel and rose petal soar out of the glass. Readers will find an elegant, sublime Barolo that hits all the right notes. Don't miss it."

"The Massolino 2019 Barolo Parussi (with 9,000 bottles made) has dark fruit and savory spice that make for a very firm and compact wine. This is an upfront and quite muscular expression with fruit from one of the northernmost sites in Castiglione Falletto. There is some firmness to the tannins that will require more aging time. This wine is set to hit the market in the fall of 2023."

Jancis Robinson
"Serralunga d’Alba. This site has a bit more clay than Parafada. One-third faces east, one-third west and one-third south. 7,000 bottles made.
Different! Full-bodied with floral and liquorice notes. Solid and less haunting than Parafada. 18/20 points."

Vinous Reverie Notes
Tasting Notes: Deep garnet red. Ethereal and enveloping with intense and persistent notes of sweet spices, sandalwood, tobacco and leather. Great structure. Remarkable tannin which softens with time and make it a perfect wine also for ageing. Its very long finish is typical of Barolos from Castiglione Falletto.
