Grumello Riserva Buon Consiglio

1999

At 350 metres above sea level, this dramatic fifty year old vineyard sits directly above the family’s cantina, which is artfully carved into the granite bedrock. After a long maceration with the skins, the grapes are pressed off to large chestnut casks for a long, gentle élevage that lasts four years. This is a beautiful example of mature mountain Nebbiolo, with sweet, delicate fruit, fine tannins and a wonderful herbaceous note.
