Elio Grasso
Ginestra Casa Maté Barolo Nebbiolo
Barolo, Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy
Currently, the Elio Grasso estate has a vineyard with 14 hectares using only estate-grown grapes. Ruby with aromas of dark berry fruit and earthy spice. 100% Nebbiolo of course, flavors of sweet cherry and raspberry emerge, smooth, with subtle spice on well made structure. Fine tannins, balanced acidity on lingering finish ending with earthy mineral notes. Nice! Can enjoy now but more cellaring will benefit.

Raspberry, tar, truffle. Cocoa, coconut sweetness. Fine, dusty tannins. One of the day's standouts. #festadelbarolo

Big and bold hits you right in the nose with tons of alcohol and fruit. Great structure and wonderful aroma. Good long finish
