THE ESTATE
Elio Grasso has his winery in Località Ginestra in the municipality of Monforte d’Alba, in the heart of the Barolo denomination. An interesting family-run business, with vineyards that have been passed down from generation to generation, along with the valuable farming experience of cultivating the land. Produces a range of wines in a classic style, fully respecting the traditions of the territory. The strong connection to roots and history has led Elio Grasso to focus on respecting ancient customs in his work, with the intent of returning to produce wines faithful to the great local terroir. Only 18 of the 42 hectares of the estate are dedicated to viticulture while the rest is left to woods and meadows, to create an environment rich in natural biodiversity. The company philosophy aims to preserve a typically peasant soul, connected to the land, nature, and its ancestral rhythms. Thanks to a deep knowledge of the territory and the desire to enhance the characteristics of each single parcel, starting from the 1980s, each vineyard is managed, harvested, and vinified separately, in order to present a range of labels that highlight the various facets of the terroir. The winery has been equipped with small tanks for parcel vinification, which is carried out simply and delicately. The same care is applied to the aging process, which is done by allowing the wine all the time it needs to evolve slowly before being bottled.
