Mascarello Giuseppe e Figlio

Mascarello Giuseppe e Figlio is a wine producer founded in 1881 in Monforte d’Alba by winegrower Giuseppe Mascarello. His son Maurizio moved the business to Monprivato in Castiglione Falletto in 1904. After Maurizio’s death in 1923, Maurizio’s son Giuseppe took charge with his siblings. Mauro Mascarello took responsibility for the Monchiero cellar in 1967, overseeing his first vinification. In 1979, he bought his late uncle Natale’s business, bringing it together with Giuseppe Mascarello e Figlio. The family owns about 15 hectares of vineyards, all in the Barolo area. Vineyard names include Monprivato, Bricco, Codana, Toetto, Villero, S. Stefano di Perno and Scudetto del S. Stefano di Perno. Mauro began vinifying grapes from individual vineyards separately in 1970, starting with Nebbiolo from Monprivato.
