Elegant and measured, this 2022 Barolo presents a fragrant profile that recalls ripe cherry, withered rose and a subtle spicy note. The nose convinces with its precision and clarity, without excess: the tannic texture is evident but smoothed, supported by a fresh acidity that ensures balance and drive. Earthy hints and a slight graphite note lend depth, making the character complex yet controlled. Overall it shows fine tension and substance, with an ability to evolve that promises further nuances over time.

On the palate the sip is taut and savory, of good structure but without heaviness: the ripeness of the fruit converses with the tannic spine and a lingering finish that invites a second taste. It pairs well with robust dishes — braised meats, roasted red meats, mushroom risottos and aged cheeses — and also rewards if left to breathe for a few hours. A large glass and a preliminary decanting bring out the internal dynamics and aromatic echoes.

Winery history
The Grimaldi family has been present in the Barolo area since 1930, when an ancestor purchased a farmhouse and several vineyards. The company’s current identity under the "Giacomo Grimaldi" label began when Ferruccio Grimaldi started bottling and producing wines in 1996. In subsequent years the family acquired vineyards in the municipalities of Barolo, Novello, Vezza d’Alba and Monforte d’Alba, bringing the total estate to 18 hectares, according to the company. Management has remained family-run, with the new generation now involved.
Production philosophy
