The palate is full-bodied and structured, offering layers of red and dark fruit, mineral depth, and savory complexity supported by vibrant acidity and finely woven tannins. Concentrated yet elegant, it finishes exceptionally long with notes of spice, salinity, and floral lift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood Pairing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Braised short ribs, truffle risotto, wild boar ragù, roasted game, and aged Parmigiano Reggiano.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e97 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate Pts:\u003c\/strong\u003e \"If you consider the Barolo playbook at Fratelli Alessandria, the 2016 Barolo Gramolere takes the intensity and power up one more notch. You get black fruit and blackberry, but there is enough vibrant red fruit to keep this wine aligned with the more elegant and traditional side of Barolo. The wine shows compelling infinities with both the powerful and the elegant side of Nebbiolo. There are noticeable mineral notes and even a spot of savory salinity. However, Gramolere definitely has the power and inner grit to withstand long cellar aging.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e96 Wine Enthusiast Pts:\u003c\/strong\u003e \"Pressed rose, camphor, woodland berry, dark spice and new leather are just some of the aromas you'll find on this fragrant red. Radiant, structured and boasting finesse and depth, the palate delivers raspberry compote, mature morello cherry, cinnamon and menthol framed in taut refined tannins. It's well balanced, with bright acidity. Drink 2024–2036.
