Massolino, Barolo Parafada Vintage:2014 the cedar- and mint-infused redThe 2004 Barolo Parafada is the softest and most open knit of Massolino's Barolos.

Crushed flowers, licorice and spices meld into a core of supple, nicely layered fruit. The 2004 should drink well for at least another decade. This is a strong showing, especially considering Massolino
