Barolo ginestra casa maté 2016 - Elio Grasso

Tasting notes

"The Elio Grasso 2016 Barolo Ginestra Casa Maté starts off a bit shy, or closed, and I was never fully able to get the wine to open. I decanted two bottles and went back over the course of a few days to check on their progress. That said, the wine never let its guard down. It remained super tight and compact over the course of my long evaluation. Given the care and reputation of this estate, I'm betting on a very long cellar evolution for this bottle. With fruit from a three-hectare plot in Ginestra, it offers beautiful structure with integrated acidity and tannins. (...) "

INFORMATIONS ABOUT THE ESTATE

Elio Grasso is a self-declared disciple of Aldo Conterno. He was always an admirer of the Conterno estate.

The sandy soils of Gavarini make a different style of Barolo than the clay based soils of Ginestra. Matured in large Slovenian botte, the colour is deep and the nose somewhat unevolved.
