This is a really serious Barolo for an amazing price. Barolo Monsorí is a classic Barolo with perfume, brightness, and seamless drinkability at a surprising price point. This value is all the more incredible when informed that this wine is made by one of the most famous wine makers in the region, in the La Morra Hills. A blend of fruit sourced from their holdings in both Castiglione Falletto and La Morra.

Although this is fairly new in the Whitfield Wines stable, before long it will be on restaurant lists all over London, as it presents operators the opportunity to put a quality Barolo on list for less than £100.

Earthy, savoury and just classic Barolo. A joy to offer. A blend of fruit sourced from their holdings in both Castiglione Falletto and La Morra

This classic Barolo offers structure and elegance, with a red fruit core, floral notes, and hints of spice and tobacco. Polished tannins and fresh acidity lead to a long, persistent finish, showing both immediate appeal and excellent ageing potential.

Barolo Monsorì from Cascina Tetti comes from young vineyards, around 10–12 years old, in the prized La Morra hills. All estate-grown grapes are hand-selected and manually harvested. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel using indigenous yeasts, with a traditional 25-27 day maceration on the skins. The wine then matures for 24 months in large Slavonian oak casks, before being bottled unfiltered to safeguard its purity and character. Eight months minimum bottle refinement.

Today, Massolino crafts everything from approachable Langhe Nebbiolo to age-worthy, single-vineyard Barolos, all showcasing Serralunga’s depth and elegance.
