Goedhuis, March 2023
A sumptuous blend of Barbera fruit from Grimaldi’s vineyards in the communes of Roddi, Diano, and Sinio, with each parcel imprinting their unique personalities on this 2021. Roddi provides a dark cherry richness, Diano gives intensity and fragrance, while Sinio’s higher elevation means there is plenty of freshness and a playful zip on the finish. A juicy, delicious wine packed with red berry and liquorice flavours and blessed with a supple, felt-like texture. An elegant expression of this native variety from one of Piemonte's great vintages. Drink 2023-2027.
Region
Piedmont
Piedmont is located in the north western corner of Italy. Though several grape varieties are prominent such as Dolcetto, Barbera and Moscato, it is Nebbiolo that reigns supreme. It produces wines that are not particularly deep in colour, yet they are perfumed, powerful and can age for many years. Due to the ethereal nature of the Nebbiolo grape and the numerous single vineyard wines, many compare top examples to grand cru Burgundies of the Côte de Nuits.Mountainous, its vineyards are cut into the hillsides forming terraces reminiscent of the Mosel Valley in Germany and the northern Rhone Valley in France. The two most notable appellations are Barolo and Barbaresco.
