Bartolo Mascarello

With each passing vintage, the list of techniques the self-styled "Last of the Mohicans" does not use grows longer: "No concentrators, no commercial yeasts, no rotofermenters, no crus, no wines with fantasy names, no barriques." Bartolo Mascarello considers the estate's '98 to be a classically styled Barolo. Daughter Maria Teresa describes '97 as elegant and fine, but without the great structure of '98, which she says is in the style of '96 and '90. "Both '98 and '99 were big crops," Maria Teresa added, but 2000 was smaller due to a difficult flowering. It was the '98 that stood out on my visit in September, with the '99 a bit stunned by the August bottling. At the time of my visit, Maria Teresa was lamenting the hailstorm of 2002. "We did twice as much work as usual in the vines during the summer, but there's no harvest to speak of." Robert Chadderdon Selections, New York, NY)
