Not modern. This is about as traditional as they come. Long macerations and aged in Slavonian botti grandi.

That is how it is made but not how it tastes. Very light modern barollo not one that needs 10 to 15 years to be appreciated.

I’m not sure what you mean by that. The “light” aspect you describe is the style of G. Mascarello and they need forever to flesh out. In a year like 2019, they will need forever, forever. Again, nothing modern about it. Not the winemaking. Not the style.

Le Rocche Del Falletto Di Serralunga D'Alba Riserva Barolo Nebbiolo

Unlike the barbaresco, this got WAY better with time in the decanter. Much more structure vs the barbaresco and more depth. It was still quite tanic out of the bottle but with time it all became well integrated. — 20 days ago

Falletto di Serralunga D'Alba Barolo Nebbiolo 2015

Wow. Not like a Barolo. More like Burgundian. It’s very elegant with light tannins and exquisitely paired with every item on the tasting menu. — 2 months ago

Falletto Rabaja' di Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2014

Still super young. 7 hour decant started to open. Great acidity and concentration of flavor with very early tertiary notes emerging. Color gives away age but that is. Hold until at least 2031 before trying again. Estimated optimum window 2036-2050 — 9 months ago
