Italian Wine Tasting Workshop Series: Meet Great Wineries Of Italy Mauro Molino with Justin Chen

9th August 2022 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm

$780.00

 

“The Mauro Molino winery is but one of the many very fine estates making, you guessed it, very fine wines in the Barolo denomination that does not get the attention and praise it deserves… they are lucky to count on vines planted in some top La Morra crus such as Conca (dell’Annunziata) and Bricco Luciani.” – Ian D’Agata, multiaward-winning wine writer and the leading expert in Italian wine

There are 5 communes in Barolo that collectors know by heart: La Morra and Barolo to the west, and Serralunga d’AlbaMonforte d’Alba to the east and Castiglione Falleto in the middle. Among others, it is the soil that plays the major role: the east is dominated by older Serravallian soils which provide a firmness and structure, while the younger Tortonian soils in the west infuse the perfume and elegance into the wines.

In certain crus of La Morra, the elegant and floral characters are finessed to its best. Mauro Molino is very lucky to have some of the best vineyards in La Morra. Conca cru, just a few hundred yards from the cellar of Mauro Molino, is their most prestigious vineyard and has been a “calling card” for the 40-year-old estate. Its wine gain numerous accolades, include 96 points from Decanter for vintage 2018 (the one included in our tasting workshop!). Also Bricco Luciani and Gallinotto are both highly regarded crus that are precisely cultivated to produce wines with exceptional and unique characters.

On 9 Aug, Martina and Matteo, the second generation owners of Mauro Molino, will join Justin Chen, Italian Wine Ambassador and Educator, for a horizontal tasting of vintage 2018 of their classic Barolo and the crus: Gallinotto, Bricco Luciani and Conca. We will also sample their delectable Barbera d’Alba and Barbera d’Asti Leradici of 2020 vintage. Apart from appreciating these beauties in the glasses and have their first hand in-put on the wines and the stories behind, Martina and Matteo will also show you the beauty of the vineyards from their stunning tasting room, live from Barolo!
