Tasting Notes: Giuseppe Mascarello’s Freisa is full and rustic in style, boasting notes of red currants, violets, thyme, and a hint of spice. Freisa is closely related to Nebbiolo and shows the connection but with a spicy edge that beautifully showcases the Toetto vineyard from the village of Castiglione Falletto. From vines planted in 1989.
Estate History: The members of the Giuseppe Mascarello family have been growing wines for more than a century and a half, first as farmers running the Manescotto estate in the village of La Morra for the marchesa Giulia Colbert Faletti di Barolo, and then on their own property since the late 1800s. The Mascarello family property extends over 15 hectares of vineyards, all located within the valley of Barolo and of Serralunga. They work everything by hand, with extremely low yields to protect the quality of the fruit and without the use of pesticides or herbicides.
