Mineral-driven and austere, with razor-sharp acidity cutting through layers of tart cherry, blood orange and crushed stone. The tannins feel almost chalky in their precision, creating a backbone that's more about elegance than power. Savory herbs and cedar emerge slowly, building toward a finish that's all tension and focus.

Elio Grasso

Elio Grasso is a benchmark Barolo estate in Monforte d'Alba, farming the Ginestra and Gavarini crus across two generations. The wines are structured, age-worthy, and among the most consistent in the appellation.
