From one of Barolo’s most revered producers, Bartolo Mascarello’s 2013 Barolo is a quintessential expression of Nebbiolo, crafted with a blend of tradition, passion, and a deep respect for the region’s unique terroir. The 2013 vintage showcases the depth and age-worthiness that Bartolo Mascarello is known for, offering a wine that is as complex as it is timeless.

The nose is a captivating blend of ripe dark fruit—blackberries, black cherries, and plums—intertwined with delicate floral notes of rose, violet, and dried herbs. As it opens up, earthy nuances of tobacco, leather, and a touch of spice emerge, adding layers of depth. On the palate, this Barolo is structured, with firm yet refined tannins that give the wine both power and elegance. The acidity is vibrant, supporting the wine’s rich fruit while maintaining freshness and balance. The finish is long and evolving, with lingering notes of dark fruit, earth, and a subtle mineral edge.

Perfect with hearty dishes like roasted meats, truffle risotto, or aged cheeses, this wine has the structure to age beautifully, developing even more complexity in the cellar over the next decade or more. Bartolo Mascarello’s Barolo 2013 is a wine that not only reflects the essence of Barolo but also embodies the legacy and craftsmanship of one of the region’s finest producers. A true classic, it’s the kind of wine that rewards both immediate enjoyment and long-term aging.

Bartolo made a name for himself resisting the modernizing trends in the region, encapsulated by a message he put on a hand-drawn bottle label: “No Barriques, No Berlusconi”. He died a few years ago but the domain is now in the gifted hands of his daughter Maria Theresa, who has raised the profile even further with a series of fabulous vintages. Still hewing rigorously to tradition (long macerations, and no barriques!), they are one of the very few domains to still release just one Barolo made from a blend of all their parcels (as was generally the case before single vineyard cuvees started to appear in the 1960s). 30% of the Barolo comes from Rocche di Annunziata in La Morra; the rest from three different vineyards in the commune of Barolo: Rue, San Lorenzo and Cannubi.

"The 2013 Barolo (magnum) is, in my estimation, one of the wines of the evening. Deep, powerful and brooding, the 2013 offers up a kaleidoscope of aromas, flavors and textures that do not let up. Plum, rose petal, kirsch, lavender and spice lend an exotic flair throughout. Magnificent." -Vinous

Robert Parker

RP 96
"Bartolo Mascarello's 2013 Barolo is made with the estate's traditional blend of vineyard sites. This includes the San Lorenzo cru that will go offline starting with the 2015 vintage. This is a classic and traditional interpretation of Nebbiolo with an absolutely pristine and polished flavor profile. The bouquet opens to pressed violet, cassis, licorice, wild sage and cola. There is an elegant mineral imprint as well with rusty iron and iodine. This edition is evermore solid and centered compared to the warmer 2012 vintage. It will also require extra bottle aging in order to bring out its natural, but nuanced intensity."

"Fragrant and loaded with finesse, this stunning red showcases Barolo's elegant side. It opens with enticing scents of rose, violet, perfumed berry and menthol while the radiant palate delivers cherry, cranberry, star anise and baking spice. It's impeccably balanced, with taut silky tannins and bright acidity that lend compelling tension. Absolutely gorgeous!"
