Rezensionen & Bewertungen

This is really transparent with sweet strawberries, flowers and orange peel, as well as some conifer and pine-nut undertones. Full-bodied and layered with intense young tannins, intertwined with bright fruit. Great finish. This is really something else. Needs time to soften, of course. Try after 2025.
96 Vinous
The 2017 Barolo Ginestra Casa Matè is a dark, mysterious wine. Black cherry, menthol, tobacco, licorice, spice, new leather and pine meld together in a super-classic expression of Ginestra. Deep, rich and enveloping, the 2017 is so impressive in the early going. Here, too, the finesse of the tannins is remarkable.

Soils in the Ginestra vineyard show more moisture-retaining clay in their composition, making them better positioned to handle hot and dry vintages such as this. The Elio Grasso 2017 Barolo Ginestra Casa Maté reveals soft concentration and extra richness; however, the aromatic nuances are well intact. I recall that the previous 2016 vintage took longer to come into focus, whereas this 2017 expression is open-knit and immediately accessible. The fruit is front and center, and the wine slides over the palate with a silky texture. Managing the tannins in 2017 was not easy, but this wine proves that lasting balance is not out of reach.

Elio Grasso stand vor der Wahl, kraftvolle, wenig ertragreiche Weine aus seinem herrlichen Anwesen in den Hügeln hinter Monforte zu produzieren, oder aber auf Ausgewogenheit und Harmonie zu setzen. Er entschied sich für Letzteres, und erfüllt dieses Ziel durch akkurate Pflege seiner Weinberge. Grasso und seine Familie haben drei Lagen-Barolos im Sortiment, die heute reiner und komplexer sind als je zuvor. Der Vigna Chiniera und der Case Maté offenbaren einen eher traditionellen Stil, während der kraftvolle Runcot 30 Monate in ausschließlich neuen Barriques ausgebaut wird. Bemerkenswert sind auch der Nebbiolo aus den Langhe und der Dolcetto d’Alba.
