A philosophy that doesn't waver
The history of Mascarello is deeply intertwined with the land and traditions of the Langhe region. Founded in 1927 by Maria Mascarello, a pioneer in an era when female entrepreneurship was rare, the winery has been a family-run business ever since. Maria's legacy was carried forward by her son Umberto, who elevated the winery's status by focusing on quality and customer service. Today, the winery is managed by her grandson, Fabio Mascarello, who continues to innovate while preserving the traditional winemaking methods that have been the hallmark of the family for generations. The winery is known not only for its exceptional wines but also for its dedication to nurturing young talent, with a team that includes many individuals under-30. This blend of tradition and innovation has earned Mascarello a place among Italy's historic brands, and its wines are celebrated for their quality and connection to the rich history of the Langhe region.
