The 2019 Barolo Ginestra Casa Matè is rich, dark and explosive. Dark-fleshed fruit, cloves
menthol, licorice, scorched earth, leather and dried flowers are some of the notes that infuse
the 2019 with character. Deep and resonant, with tremendous depth, the Ginestra is a wine
of unbridled intensity. Swaths of tannin wrap around the huge, substantial finish. This virile,
strapping Barolo is quite simply classic Ginestra.

Elio Grasso is one of the star producers in the Barolo village of Monforte. They specialize in just one Cru: Ginestra. Ginestra is one of those great Barolo sites, like Rocche or Brunate, that face southeast, for the most part, ideal for scooping up the cool morning sun. But Ginestra stands apart for its intense concentration of limestone. It is one of only 10 Crus to be designated “Exceptional” in Antonio Galloni’s vineyard rankings.

Ginestra is itself divided into several sub-Crus, and Grasso actually releases several different Barolos from each specific site – all of which are quite deep and powerful in their own particular ways.
