Cantina (Bartolo) Mascarello Barolo Tasting
@ Bar Boulud, NYC (4/16/2012)

This dinner was organized by Mannie Berk of The Rare Wine Co in Sonoma, CA.

Here is their email announcing this dinner:

Like his contemporary Giovanni Conterno, the late Bartolo Mascarello was an icon. In fact, he was so famous and revered that it's sometimes forgotten that his Cantina Mascarello had for decades before him been every bit as admired--thanks to the consummate winemaking of his father Giulio.

All told, the legacy of wines left by Giulio and Bartolo Mascarello have few peers from the 20th century.

On Monday, April 16th, we will have the privilege to explore virtually every great wine made by father and son between 1952 and 1971, including the unique opportunity in three vintages to compare the normale and the very rare riserva bottlings. This includes*:

1952 Cantina Mascarello Barolo Canubbi Riserva
1952 Cantina Mascarello Barolo
1954 Cantina Mascarello Barolo Riserva
1955 Cantina Mascarello Barolo Canubbi Riserva
1957 Cantina Mascarello Barolo
1958 Cantina Mascarello Barolo Canubbi Riserva
1958 Cantina Mascarello Barolo
1961 Cantina Mascarello Barolo Canubbi Riserva

1964 Cantina Mascarello Barolo
1967 Cantina Mascarello Barolo Riserva
1970 Cantina Mascarello Barolo

The wines will accompany a 4-course menu created for this special evening.
