Note di degustazione
Alessandria's 2014 Barolo Gramolere is just as impressive from bottle as it was from barrel, and every bit as potent, too. Huge swaths of tannin give the 2014 its shape and overall structure, with the deeply spiced, mentholated, balsamic notes that are so typical of this site. Readers will have to be patient, but the 2014 is a jewel of a wine.

The 2014 Barolo Gramolere is a wine with a slow evolution that is put-putting though time to take on more volume and intensity. At this young stage in the wine's life, it offers balanced aromas of wild berry, spice, smoke and tar that make for a savory and polished bouquet. This Barolo is aged for three long years in Slavonian oak casks before its commercial release. Some 6,000 bottles were made.
Monforte d’Alba. Tasted blind. Mid ruby with bricky tinges. Savoury, brooding fruit with bags of minerals on the nose. Compact and a little unwilling to open up. Finely chiselled tannins. Super-elegant, but needs more time (WS)
Monforte d’Alba. Unusual meaty nose with dark, spicy notes and a hint of liquorice. ‘This is near Bussia, but higher, with sandier soils and layers of marl. This was a vineyard that belonged to my grandfather – from 60-year-old vines’. Clayey tannins and supple fruit with great acidity. (WS)
