Elio Grasso Barolo Gavarini Chiniera 2022

Elio Grasso Barolo Gavarini Chiniera is a benchmark expression of Nebbiolo from one of Barolo’s most respected cru sites. Crafted from the Gavarini Chiniera vineyard, it combines elegance, depth, and serious structure, with the pedigree to age beautifully for years to come.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows the classic depth and brightness of Barolo, with a refined ruby-garnet hue. The nose opens with ripe cherry and red berry fruit, followed by layered notes of licorice, quinine bark, balsamic herbs, and a subtle earthy complexity that speaks to its origin. The palate is powerful yet poised, with firm tannins, vivid acidity, and a long, mineral-driven finish. Rich fruit is balanced by savory spice and floral lift, giving the wine both immediate appeal and impressive aging potential. This is a Barolo built for the cellar, where it will continue to gain nuance and harmony over time.

Production
Made from 100% Nebbiolo grown in the Gavarini Chiniera cru in Piedmont, this wine reflects the character of one of Barolo’s prized hillside sites. The vineyard’s terroir contributes structure, aromatic precision, and freshness, while the grapes are vinified with care to preserve purity and typicity. Aging takes place in large 25-hectoliter Slavonian oak casks, a traditional approach that supports slow maturation without overpowering the wine’s site expression.

Food & Serving
This Barolo pairs beautifully with rich, savory dishes such as braised beef, veal shank, truffle pasta, mushroom risotto, and aged hard cheeses. Serve at 16–18°C, and decant for 1–2 hours if drinking young to help the wine खुल up and soften its tannins.

Producer
Elio Grasso is among the most highly regarded producers in Barolo, known for wines that unite traditional craftsmanship with exceptional vineyard expression. Based in Monforte d’Alba, the estate has earned an outstanding reputation for precision, balance, and longevity, and its cru wines are especially celebrated by critics and collectors alike.
