Cantina Giuseppe Mascarello & Figli is like stepping into a living piece of history. The winery, filled with ancient botti, embodies timeless traditions—slow fermentations in concrete and steel, long aging in oak casks up to 70 years old, and a steadfast commitment to authenticity. The Mascarellos farm with an eye toward the future, honoring their roots while ensuring the land thrives for generations to come. But this isn’t just about preserving the past. The connection between history and the present is palpable in their wines. Elena and Giuseppe Mascarello, the newest generation, continue the family’s work with grace, letting their terroirs—like the legendary Monprivato, often dubbed the “Musigny of Barolo”—speak for themselves. The result? Honest, unembellished wines that capture the soul of Piedmont in every vintage.
