Description

"The 2011 Barolo Ginestra Vigna Casa Matè has retained greater freshness than the Gavarini. At the same time, the flavors are dark, bold and intense throughout, with gorgeous balsamic-inflected overtones that add nuance. In 2011, with sugars mounting, Gianluca Grasso chose to pick the Ginestra before the Gavarini, which is not the norm here. As a result, the tannins are a bit dry and austere by today's standards, although in prior decades plenty of Barolos were made with tannins that weren't fully ripe. However, the flavors retain gorgeous brightness, tension and energy throughout, all of which makes me think the 2011 will come together over time. 94 Galloni"

"A very exciting and subtle red with tar, licorice and dark berry character. Full-bodied, yet subtle and balanced. Lovely density and freshness. Better than 2010. Drink or hold for many years. 95 Suckling"

We have managed to secure a small parcel of one of the most talented producers in Piedmont, highly regarded and highly rated each year. His two flagship Barolo-s are some of the most beautiful, terroir driven examples of Barolo. And we can offer them at the cheapest price in UK - 15-20% cheaper than the cheapest merchant.
Buy as much as you can of these wines which are modern classics and highly collectible.

These are the last 3 cases we have in stock!

Feel free to contact us with any information needed.
