Another rarity, the 1971 Barolo from Natale Mascarello, Mauro Mascarello’s uncle, is perhaps not great, but nevertheless fascinating to contemplate as it is a wine that is beguiling because of its human, fragile personality.

Giuseppe Mascarello’s 1971 Barolo is a real treat. By this time, Mascarello was making both a Monprivato and a blended Barolo. Personally, I prefer wines with a little more freshness, but the 1971 is quite pretty, especially right after opening. At this stage, though, any remaining bottles need to be finished.
