Elio Grasso is a self-declared disciple of Aldo Conterno. He was always an admirer of the Conterno estate. In 1979, when he decided to move from his banking job in Turin to Monforte to transform the 335-acre family farm into a winery, Aldo helped Elio get started by providing advice and winemaking assistance. The Elio Grasso estate is now under the guidance of son Gianluca, a direct and no nonsense man in his prime, and the Grasso wines remain benchmarks for the region. This Barbera comes from vines very close to the Gavarini (Barolo) vineyard. It shows great depth and charm, benefiting from Grasso’s use of oak to help soften the natural acidity of the Barbera grape. Effortlessly stylish, it offers juicy bramble fruits that combine on the palate with a sleek and soft spiciness.
