Cascina Morassino 2007 Ovello Nebbiolo (Barbaresco)

  1. $45
The steep Ovello vineyard overlooks the hilltop hamlet of Barbaresco and beautifully trellised countryside. This cru expression shows aromas of spice, mesquite, cedar, clove and black fruit. In addition, there are distinguishable aromas of blue flower and green olive, backed by silky tannins and a smooth but drying finish.  — M.L.  (12/1/2010)

Cascina Morassino 2008 Morassino Nebbiolo (Barbaresco)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $36
Barbaresco Morassino is a dark, brooding wine with smoky tones of tobacco and smoked cedar backed by black olive, mature fruit, barbecue and soy sauce. There is some tight astringency on the finish that will soften with time.  — M.L.  (9/1/2011)

Cascina Morassino 2008 Ovello Nebbiolo (Barbaresco)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $44
A few famous names have dipped into the Ovello cru for grapes and Cascina Morassino is part of that elite group. Facing the church steeple of Barbaresco, the vineyard delivers smoky notes of tar and asphalt backed by ripe fruit and cedar wood. There’s a wild, messy character to this wine that is charming.  — M.L.  (9/1/2011)

Cascina Morassino 2007 Morassino Nebbiolo (Barbaresco)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $57
Here’s a genuine and fresh expression of Barbaresco with loads of fruit-driven aromas including cherry, cassis, raspberry and fresh plum. There’s great acidity and brightness too and the wine finishes with tart berry flavor on the close.  — M.L.  (12/1/2010)
