Reviewed January 2025The 2021 Barolo Gavarini Chiniera is a deep, powerful wine. In most vintages, the Gavarini Chiniera is a bit more linear, but the 2021 has an extra kick of textural depth that is such a hallmark of the year. Iron, chalk, dried flowers, mint and red cherry fruit build with a bit of coaxing. Readers will find a potent, explosive Barolo that hits all the right notes. (AG)
Notes
Elio Grasso’s "Gavarini Chiniera" Barolo is a refined expression of Monforte d’Alba’s high-altitude vineyards. The 2021 vintage reveals bright red berries, roses, and mint on the nose, with a precise, structured palate of cherry, spice, and mineral undertones. Silky tannins and fresh acidity lead to a long, elegant finish. A classic, age-worthy Barolo with finesse and depth, ideal for pairing with braised meats and truffle dishes.
