Description

Elio Grasso is making monumental wines with great balance and classic varietal character. Split between the worlds of new wave and traditonal Piemontese winemaking Elio has been able to fuse the two incorporating the best of both. Micro-oxygenation and large oak barrels give the wine more suppleness, more depth, smoothness without giving up the fruit or terroir of Barolo. Simply stunning wines. The Gavarini is more aromatic and ethereal, a nice robust Barolo with quite deep ruby colour and slight bricking at the rim. Aromas on the nose were expressive with a noticeable anise content and and the palate was medium full bodied showing dark fruit infused with red rose, more anise and a little tar, fresh acidity and quite firm backbone.
