Established in 1896 by Giovanni Massolino, Italy’s Massolino winery has been dedicated to the production of the finest wines from the Langhe area of Piedmont. In the 1990s, Giovanni’s grandson, Franco, joined the winery to begin overseeing production. We are honored to have Franco join Chef Silivos as the formidable pair host a 5-course evening of Massolino wines paired with specialty cuisine.

ABOUT MASSOLINO:
Featured numerous times amongst Wine Spectator’s Top 100 Wines of the Year, Italy’s Massolino winery produces about 120,000 bottles each year, including Chardonnay, Barbera d’Alba, Nebbiolo d’Alba, Moscato d’Asti, and Barolo. The winemaking style is classically ‘traditional,’ as evidenced by the use of cement fermentation tanks and large Slavonian oak casks for ageing, however more modern techniques and technologies are also employed resulting in incredibly clean, elegant wines, perfectly respecting the characteristics of the indigenous grape varieties and the territory. Over the years, the name Massolino has become synonymous with robust, concentrated and well-structured Barolo, celebrated around the world. (via VinConnect)
