Elio Grasso Barolo Ginestra Casa Mate 2016  - First Bottle

Reviews

97 Vinous -
Ample and creamy on the palate, with tremendous depth, the 2016 Barolo Ginestra Casa Mate is super impressive, even in the early going. Next to the Gavarini Chiniera, the Ginestra Casa Mate is a Barolo of textural resonance and volume. Black cherry, plum and a range of balsamic notes infuse the 2016 with tons of character. The is one of the real standouts of the year.
97 James Suckling -
The purity of fruit is phenomenal on the nose with crushed raspberries, flowers, sliced lemons and pink roses. Full body and powerful, racy tannins at the back end, giving drive, intensity and length. Goes on for minutes with such structure and finesse. Drink in 2022, but already irresistible.

Grasso is highly respected by other Barolo producers. Elio Grasso and his son, Gianluca, continue to release beautifully perfumed and structured Barolo. The Ginestra Casa Maté is a great expressions of Monforte terroir. These examples of Barolo are as honest as you can find. While they last!
