Somehow this manages to be very powerful and concentrated, expressive and wild all at once. Violets and wet earth mingle in the complex and very youthful nose. What a breathtaking interplay of fruit, tannin and mineral freshness this has on the compact, but only medium-bodied palate. Enormous vitality at the firework-display finale! From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drinkable now, but best from 2024.

Vinous
Minty herbs and camphor give way to black currants and savory spices, as the 2019 Teroldego Granato blossoms in the glass. This is polished and elegant with a deep inner spiciness and depths of dark red fruits. Cooling acids and minerals help to lift the expression, holding the 2019’s power in reserve, and creating a youthful yet totally harmonious expression. While structured and built for the long term, I recommend checking in on at least one bottle to enjoy the intensity of its primary fruit. This is an undeniably classic Granato in the making. In 2019, the Foradori family used 30% whole-cluster fruit while fermenting the Granato.
Notes
The "Granato" Teroldego is the pinnacle of Elisabetta Foradori’s winemaking, crafted from select Teroldego vineyards in the Dolomites. The 2019 vintage is known for its power and complexity, offering deep concentration and excellent aging potential. On the nose, it reveals intense aromas of blackberry, pomegranate, and plum, along with earthy hints of spice and leather. The palate is rich and full-bodied, with refined tannins and a long, mineral-driven finish.
