Massolino’s cask-aged 2005 Barolo Margheria is a sweet, layered wine that shows superb depth and precision. Deceptively medium in body, the wine offers up plums, spices, licorice, iron, herbs and flowers in a chiseled, beautifully articulated style, with a long, pure finish. There is plenty of punch underneath, however, and this delicious Barolo should drink well to age 20 and likely beyond. Today the Margheria is quite fresh and primary, and readers will need to be patient before the wine is ready to give its finest. This is classic Serralunga Barolo. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2027. This is a beautiful set of wines from brothers Franco and Roberto Massolino. These Barolos offer gorgeous balance in the mid-weight style of the vintage. There will also be a 2005 Barolo Riserva Vigna Rionda, but that wine won’t be ready for several years. Importer: Domaine Select, New York, NY; tel. (212) 279-0799

There's lovely sweet fruit, cedar and strawberry character in this wine, which is full and supersilky, with ultrarefined tannins and a plum and berry aftertaste. Very polished and pretty. Best after 2013. 380 cases made, 120 cases imported.??–JS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add

The nose has pretty elements of hazelnut and chocolate in a Nutella-like twist that is accented by smoke, black stone, leather and wild berries. The wine has good intensity, acidity and a streamlined mouthfeel that suggests it needs at least five more years in the bottle.——M.L.(4/1/2009)—— 91
