Intensely perfumed, this is one of the best Barolos from the vintage, starting right out with its enticing scents wild rose, Alpine herb, wet stone, woodland berry and camphor. On the vibrant, delicious palate, taut, fine-grained tannins accompany succulent pomegranate, wild raspberry, star anise and cinnamon. It’s elegant, precise and impeccably balanced, with bright acidity. It’s already gorgeous but will age beautifully too. Drink 2024–2038. Abv: 14.5%

95 Wine Spectator

A supple red hallmarked by elegance and finesse, featuring rose, strawberry, cherry and accents of eucalyptus and mint, which ply the refined texture and structure. Balanced and persists on the fruit-filled aftertaste, where a mineral element emerges. Shows excellent length. Best from 2024 through 2042. 2,158 cases made.

The Giuseppe Mascarello 2018 Barolo Monprivato reveals an open and accessible personality. This wine is an immediate charmer. I tasted these wines with the Mascarello family seated across the table from me, and during our chat, they explained that this was a gratifying vintage in terms of farming and winemaking. The growing season was not too hot, and high alcohol levels were not an issue, they say. In the case of this wine, we are greeted to mild tannins and a pretty bouquet with delicate floral notes, smoke and tar.
