Founded by Giuseppe Molino in 1953, the Molino winery (La Morra) has been producing some of the greatest expressions of the Nebbiolo grape for more than half a century. In 1978, Mauro Molino (left) took over for his father and more recently, a third-generation of Molino winemakers joined the legacy of this iconic winery when Matteo Molino finished his studies at the enological institute in Alba.
The estate has 5.8 hectares planted to Nebbiolo, including one of the Langhe Hills’ most famous growing sites, the legendary Vigna Conca, the shell vineyard so-called because of its shell-like amphitheater shape.
From its bright, fresh Barbera d’Alba and its earthy, savory classic Barolo, which blended from different growing sites, to its top single-vineyard designated bottlings of Barolo, the three generations of experience at Molino delivers world-class wines vinified using the best of old- and new-world techniques in winemaking.
The most recent generation of this family-owned and managed estate, Matteo Molino, will be presenting some of the winery’s top wines on Wednesday, September 15, 5:30 p.m., at Vino Vino in Austin.
