Gramolere is a cru in the municipality of Monforte d'Alba, situated between Gavarini and Bussia. Its structure and character are considered synonymous with the Barolo of Monforte. Alongside these characteristics, the wine from this particular hillside expresses delicate scents of aromatic herbs that blend with classic and complex notes of leather and licorice.
95 Points - Wine & Spirits
The Alessandria family’s wine from Monforte is red-fruited and lively, its crunchy cherry and berry flavors gaining verve and brightness as the wine sits in the glass. The tannins are like cool iron, gripping the red fruit tones as they pick up notes of soft herbs and white licorice on the long finish.
94 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
With fruit from Monforte d'Alba, the 2018 Barolo Gramolere is linear and tight with etched aromas of crisp forest berry, iron ore, blood orange, blue violet and crushed stone. The wine is bright and expressive with time in the glass, but it takes a while to open fully. The tannins are firm but integrated. It should be interesting to retaste this Barolo after the 10-year mark.
92 Points - Wine Enthusiast
Underbrush and camphor aromas mingle with whiffs of pressed rose. On the linear, focused palate, polished tannins and fresh acidity accompany dried cherry and star anise before closing on a hint of mocha.
