MORASSINO

Cascina Morassino owns about 4 hectares of land nestled on the steep slopes of Ovello hills in the heart of Barbaresco. Run by Roberto Bianco and his father Mauro, it’s one of the area’s oldest and most cherished producers. Staying true to the warm tradition of Italian family-run wineries, father and son do everything themselves—they wouldn’t dream of outsourcing vineyard work to anyone else.

Roberto Bianco is a genuine farmer and producer with a lot of integrity. The Langhe region has seen many wineries give in to the temptation of tailoring wines to please critics, but Roberto focuses on crafting wines with care and respect for Nebbiolo’s true character.

His wines highlight the fragrant, expressive side of Nebbiolo while maintaining that signature spicy grip. They beautifully prove that Barbaresco can honor its deep roots and still be successful. As Roberto often says: “Nebbiolo must be pure. There are no shortcuts.”
