Description
"Gramolere is a cru in the municipality of Monforte d’Alba, situated between Gavarini and Bussia. Its structure and character are considered synonymous with the Barolo of Monforte. Alongside these characteristics, the wine from this particular hillside expresses delicate scents of aromatic herbs that blend with classic and complex notes of leather and liquorice." - Winemaker Notes
"The 2019 Barolo Gramolere (with 7,000 bottles made) shows a slightly sweeter and riper fruit profile. This wine comes from the village of Monforte d'Alba, which is known for more structured and powerful wines compared to Verduno (where this winery is based), which offers lighter, more floral wines instead. Gramolere shows dark fruit, plum and spice, but it also has a pretty mineral note of rust or iron. However, within this portfolio, this wine may well deliver the longest drinking window." - 96 Points, Monica Larner, Wine Advocate
"Bright cherry and berry fruit are the hallmarks of this rich, supple red, with accents of licorice, wild herbs and mineral adding depth. Vibrant acidity and a firm line of tannins lend support as this cruises to a lingering aftertaste of fruit and savory notes." - 93 Points, Wine Spectator
