About Silvio Grasso
The town of La Morra is located halfway between Alba and Barolo territories and is one of the most loved areas by connoisseurs of the Nebbiolo grapes. Here there are many wine producers, each with their own defining characteristics. In-wine has chosen to collaborate with the Silvio Grasso company because of their family-style and genuine approach both towards the land and towards others: a way of working that on the one hand makes a strong reference to the farming traditions of the past, but on the other hand, is well aware that in 2020 wine is expected convey both authenticity and emotion. Federico Alessio Grasso, son of the founder Silvio, now works on the 14 hectares of vineyards (about 35 acres) all planted with black-skinned grapes and produces about 70,000 bottles a year, from Dolcetto to 6 different types of Barolo based on the strengths of each vineyard. This winery is a much-appreciated reality in the Langhe hill region and this fact makes us at in-wine particularly proud to have them as a partner. Grasso s style of Barolo weds power to finesse, and in doing so Federico Grasso captures the ultimate expression of La Morra, traditionally the most elegant of Barolo wines. The 2008 Silvio Grasso Barolo also provides the perfect snapshot of Grasso s inimitable style. As a quintessential La Morra Barolo, the 2008 Silvio Grasso offers up an amplifying bouquet of red fruits, plum, mocha, and spice. On the palate, the wine comes across as truly supple, yet broad and expansive.
