Red dry
Mauro Molino Barbera d’Alba 2024 - a wine that represents the character of Barbera: freshness, fruitiness, vitality.
During the fermentation of grape juice, maceration lasting 6 days and malolactic transformation are carried out in stainless steel tanks. After the fermentation process, the wine is aged for 6 months in steel tanks.
The aromas are dominated by berry notes - cherries, currants, red berries, with some herbal/aromatic tones. The wine is fresh, with more active acidity, fruity, with soft tannins. Well balanced, textured, pleasant. Medium-long mineral-fruity aftertaste.
Serve at 16 - 18°C with traditional Italian dishes (e.g. pasta with Bolognese sauce), pork or poultry dishes with tomatoes. Also, semi-hard and mature cheeses will go well with the wine.
History and family philosophy
The winery was founded in 1979 by Mauro Molino, who previously worked as an oenologist and agronomist. From the very beginning, his goal was clear: to craft wines that precisely express the Barolo terroir while preserving elegance and balance. Today, the estate is led by the second generation—Matteo and Martina Molino—who continue their father’s vision and steadily strengthen the winery’s reputation on the international market.
Vineyards and terroir
Azienda Agricola Mauro Molino farms approximately 12 hectares of vineyards located in some of the most prestigious areas of Barolo:
The soils are predominantly limestone and clay, combined with varied microclimates that allow the creation of clearly differentiated, cru-driven wine styles.
Wine style
Mauro Molino wines are defined by clarity, precision, and balance. This is Barolo that speaks not through sheer power, but through structural discipline and aromatic depth.
Oak is used with restraint, supporting texture without overshadowing the voice of the terroir.
Winemaking principles
The wines are crafted for longevity, yet many show an appealing approachability in their youth—an attribute especially valued by modern Barolo enthusiasts.
Reputation and place within Barolo
Azienda Agricola Mauro Molino is regarded as a reliable, terroir-focused Barolo producer, whose wines are frequently chosen for restaurant wine lists and collectors’ cellars. It is an estate that does not chase trends, but consistently expresses the essence of Barolo—wines made for time, place, and structure.
