Marketplace description
Massolino Barolo Parafada 2014 is a single-vineyard Barolo from the Parafada lot in Serralunga d’Alba. The 2014 vintage delivers a powerful, age-worthy Nebbiolo with concentrated red fruit, mineral depth, and muscular tannins. Built for the long haul, it rewards decanting now or cellaring for years; superb with braised meats, truffle dishes, or aged cheeses.
