Bruna Grimaldi Nebbiolo d’Alba Bonurei 2018

Serralunga, Cuneo, Piedmont, ItalyAzienda Bruna Grimaldi is a family-owned winery in the hills of Barolo, now in the capable hands of Bruna, who takes over from the generations of winemakers who preceded her. Bruna and her husband, Franco Fiorino, put the winery on the map, bottling their first label in 1999. From younger (up to 25 years) vines on the mid-slope Barolo borders in Diano d’Alba, this Nebbiolo had 2-3 weeks skin contact and underwent ferment in stainless, followed by 6 months' aging in 500 and 700 litres tonneaux and big barrels. Graceful throughout, as is her way, this charms with wild roses, perfumed black cherries, wild raspberries, and a fresh woodsiness through the bright, tart finish. Tannins are slight and grippy, and acidity is lofted.Tasted: 03 September 2021Tasted by: Prices:
