Description

Elio Grasso, Barolo, Gavarini Chiniera 2017. 95/96 ratings.

A great chance to get a top notch Barolo that can be drunk now, and laid for further ageing. Sells for £75 a bottle when buying 6 bottles, so this is a great chance to get these 2 bottles for a great price.

Grape: Nebbiolo
Aspect and height above sea level: south-facing, 320-360 metres
Soil type: moderately loose-packed, slightly sandy, limestone-based Vine
training system and planting density: Guyot-trained at 4,500 vines per hectare.
Average age of productive vines: 35 years
Harvest period and method: second 10 days of October, manual harvest.
The vinification procedure for Gavarini Chiniera® Barolo DOCG involves
alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks,
with daily pumping over. After completing malolactic fermentation, the
wine matures in 25-hectolitre barrels of Slavonian oak. Bottling normally
takes place in August. The Gavarini Chiniera® Barolo DOCGthen stays in
the binning cellar for 8-10 months before release.

95+/100 - The Elio Grasso 2017 Barolo Gavarini Chiniera shows us that deft hands are able to shape good results in a challenging vintage. This wine is balanced and polished with an array of smaller and more detailed aromas that we simply don't see in the majority of Barolo releases from this hot and dry vintage. The bouquet here cautiously unveils tiny berry fruit, underbrush, wild rose, lilac, rusty nail and crushed stone. Nuanced and precise, this is one of a handful of 2017 releases that deserves special praise. - Monica Larner, Wine Advocate

96/100 - Grasso's 2017 Barolo Gavarini Chiniera is fabulous. In fact, the Gavarini is easily one of the wines of the vintage because it retains all of its classic signatures, which is also the sign of a first-class vineyard. Bright and vibrant in the glass, the Gavarini pulses with energy. Crushed red flowers, mint, chalk, white pepper, cinnamon and orange peel give the 2017 a super-classic Nebbiolo profile, as expressed in a relatively high-altitude site. The precision and finesse of the tannins - so hard to find in 2017- elevates the Gavarini into the realm of the sublime. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous

95/100 - Ripe-berry aromas with toffee and some iodine and stone. Full-bodied with depth of fruit and chewy, polished tannins that are intense and pointed. This has so much structure and intensity. Give it time to soften and come together. Try in 2025. - James Suckling
