"The 2021 Dolcetto d'Alba is rich, deep and wonderfully expressive. A burst of dark cherry/plum, lavender and spice lends notable richness. In 2021 the Dolcetto marries sumptuous fruit with a total sense of classicism that is so appealing. The 2021 is a super-Dolcetto. Don't miss it!" —Antonio Galloni

"From a vintage that was especially favorable to this varietal, the 2021 Dolcetto d'Alba shows a firm and solid quality of fruit with rich, juicy flavors of blackberry and sweet cherry. Maria Teresa Mascarello explains that Dolcetto is a very delicate grape that is extremely vintage-sensitive. It needs healthy conditions and steep diurnal temperature shifts, otherwise the berries are compromised. Unfortunately, acreage to Dolcetto is rapidly declining, she explains, because vintners prefer to plant more lucrative Nebbiolo and Barbera instead." —Monica Larner

More about Bartolo Mascarello

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.
