Energy and precision define Elio Grasso’s Barolo Gavarini Vigna Chiniera 2019, which layers vibrant red cherry and wild berry fruit with rose, orange zest, sweet spice and a subtle chalky, forest-tinged minerality. The palate is taut yet refined, with polished but firmly shaped tannins and a bright line of acidity driving a long, resonant finish that promises considerable complexity with time in bottle. A superb and finely etched vintage that will reward patience rather than immediate gratification.

Elio Grasso’s Barolo Gavarini Vigna Chiniera is a single‑vineyard Nebbiolo from the Gavarini amphitheatre in Monforte d’Alba, grown on relatively sandy, limestone‑rich soils at mid‑to‑high elevations and fermented in stainless steel before ageing in large Slavonian oak casks. The wine is typically the more floral, elegant and finely textured of Grasso’s Barolos—perfumed with red cherry, rose and spice notes, marked by bright acidity and fine, grippy tannins, and built for medium‑to‑long ageing.
