Lot of orange peel and fresh berry aromas and flavors. It’s medium-bodied with firm and racy tannins that are well-integrated in the wine. A little tight at the end. Try after 2026.

A rich, caressing Barolo, with licorice overtones warming up cherry and plum flavors. Gains detail from iron, tar and menthol accents, remaining balanced and harmonious. Should be approachable soon. Best from 2025 through 2042. 900 cases made, 500 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add

The 2017 Barolo is a broad and thickly concentrated expression that definitely wears the marks of a hot growing season. The fruit is weighed by thick concentration, dark cherry and plum, all followed by plenty of earthy tones or crushed aspirin. You even get a hint of black truffle that is perfumed and sensual. The tannins on this wine are almost accessible now, and this wine can be enjoyed in the near term as well. I found this blended Barolo to be the most balanced of these three new releases from Silvio Grasso. Some 20,000 bottles were made.

A fragrant red, offering cherry, nutmeg and white pepper aromas, this is austere, its shy fruit hiding behind the vibrant structure. It's slim and not too densely tannic, so should develop over the short-term. Best from 2022 through 2037. 900 cases made, 500 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add

An elegant style, this red offers currant and cherry fruit at the core, enhanced by licorice, tar and eucalyptus elements. Bright and long, with a saline aftertaste. Best from 2022 through 2036. 900 cases made, 500 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Piedmont / Barolo Select to Add
