Giuseppe Mascarello makes it a point of honour to respect the environment by practising sustainable viticulture, without herbicides or chemicals, thus promoting the health of the soil and the quality of the grapes. The grapes are harvested by hand, enabling the best bunches to be selected for exceptional vintages. In the cellar, Giuseppe favours traditional methods, with spontaneous fermentation and ageing in oak tuns, allowing his wines to express themselves fully. His flagship wines include Barolo Monprivato, renowned for its complexity and elegance, Barolo Villero and Cascina delle Rose. Giuseppe Mascarello 's reputation has been firmly established thanks to his commitment to quality and his love of the terroir. His wines, both refined and powerful, appeal to wine lovers and experts alike, while embodying the Mascarello family's winemaking herita.
