The Mascarello ‘Scudetto’ Barbera d’Alba is dark and substantial, where cherries come out first on the palate followed by some chocolate and very soft tannines. Makes you want to go back for another sip. Really nice. — 7 months ago

This is gorgeous. A soft edged nose with red and black cherry, dried roses. On the palate this is gorgeous and soft. The fruit is delicate and focused. Tobacco and soft wood notes come through later in the midpalate. Very classy and in great shape right now. — 4 years ago

Some of the stink of great old Barolo with hints of Madeira and a deep ry fruit. Licorice and faded rose. A great color, deep pure and intense. On the palate deep secondary fruit. Leather, dark fruit. Very clear and pure. A great bottle. — 7 years ago

Floral, strawberry, cherry, leather, searing acid, screaming tannins. I see where Nebbiolo gets it from. A beautiful wine, but definitely needs time. — 6 years ago
A 30 min decant, nose amazing, taste was seductive and my oldest Monvigliero, according to other 2011, Mascarello and Vigna Francia , this is clearly more my style! — 7 years ago

The aromatics are of average intensity with notes of dark cherries, spices, pepper and cloves. The wine as a good mix of the Barbera’s acidity and some integrated tannins, easy drinking, good even if not very complex. To be slightly chilled before serving.
Nez moyennement aromatique de cerises, épices, poivre et clou girofle. Bouche alliant acidité appuyée et tannins intégrés, agréable, sans être très complexe, à boire un peu rafraîchi autour de 17-18 degrés. — 6 years ago

Medium ruby garnet , with medium thin garnet ruby rim. This is quite closed at first , needs some time in the glass . Quite somber and dark fruited , with anis , dry spice and porcini , black tea. Quite meaty and deep . On the palate this is more generous , with quite rich saline edged dark fruits , currants , black tea and porcini . Quite fresh acidity and quite noticeable grippy tannins . Long and really quite intense on the palate , spiced saline finish . Even though there are lots of tertiary notes, there is great freshness and grip on the palate , it’s long and saline. Certainly improved with time in the glass and overall this shows pretty well at the moment. From now and over the next 5-10 years . — 3 days ago
