Wine Type: Red

Grape Variety: Nebbiolo

Sweetness: Dry

Region: Piedmont, Italy

The estate dates back to 1953 when Giovanni Molino, grandfather of current owners Matteo and Martina Molino, bought a vineyard parcel in the Conca area of La Morra. However, it was Matteo and Martina’s father, Mauro, who started producing wines under the family name in 1982.

The fruit is sourced from three distinguished sites: Annunziata, Berri, and Perno, all characterized by limestone-rich soils that contribute to the wine's mineral backbone. The grapes ferment in stainless steel before aging in large oak casks, preserving pure fruit character while allowing gentle development.

This minimal intervention approach results in a "pretty, naked portrait of the grape" – showcasing Nebbiolo in its most honest form. The absence of heavy manipulation allows the variety's inherent characteristics to shine through.

"This wine shows a combination of lively fruit and elegance that only Nebbiolo can deliver. The Mauro Molino 2021 Barolo offers a terrific and well-priced interpretation of the vintage with redcurrant, blue flower and crushed stone over a fine mouthfeel with tension and energy. This wine jumps the gap into a higher, more exciting level of Barolo intensity. Fruit comes from Annunziata, Berri and Perno on limestone soils. The wine is fermented in stainless steel and moves into large oak casks. The wine offers a pretty, naked portrait of the grape. This simplest wine is one of my favorites."
-Wine Advocate, 95 Points

"Bright redcurrant notes provide a vibrant foundation, beautifully complemented by delicate blue flower aromatics and subtle crushed stone minerality that speaks to the wine's terroir. The mouthfeel reveals exceptional craftsmanship with fine texture, remarkable tension and energy. This creates a wine that jumps into a higher, more exciting level of Barolo intensity."
-Shawn Paul, Foxcroft Wine Co. Operations Director
