Today the estate is led by Fabio Mascarello and continues its traditional approach of careful grape selection and classic Piedmontese winemaking. In 2022, the winery was officially entered into Italy's Register of Historic Trademarks of National Interest, recognizing its long connection to the territory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-justify para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE VINEYARD\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-justify para-style-body\"\u003eProduced entirely from Nebbiolo grown in the Barolo territory, the Riserva Umberto represents the pinnacle of the Mascarello family's production. The estate encompasses approximately 18 hectares of vineyards, with its historic eighteenth-century cellar located in La Morra. Only around 2,000 bottles of the 2019 Riserva were produced, making it a particularly limited release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-justify para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-justify para-style-body\"\u003eMascarello follows a distinctly traditional philosophy, emphasizing careful fruit selection and long maturation rather than an overtly modern style. The 2019 Barolo Riserva Umberto was matured for five years in large oak casks, allowing Nebbiolo's powerful tannins and complex aromatics to develop slowly while maintaining the character of the variety and terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_04xlpA direction-ltr align-justify para-style-body\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe five years in large oak, 2,000-bottle production and tasting profile are specifically documented for the 2019 Barolo Umberto Riserva.
