Debut vintage for Fabrizio Iuli making Grignolino. Some 3000 bottles made, aged in concrete only. As with all his wines these days, ripeness is controlled perfectly, tannins obvious but grainy and the acidity handsomely fruity.

Such a cool wine and wonderful interpretation of this obscure variety. Perhaps not for all, but do embrace it, buckle up, and experience the rowdy playfulness of the tannins and the vibrant freshness that is keeping the wine tight and bone dry and bringing the wine forward, everything balanced by a complete mid palate that is keeping the wine far from being hollow. Transparent but with plenty of substance, both to drink without thought and for more philosophical drinking occasions.

It says red blend, but primarily Grignolino. Light, fruity and fresh. But with backbone and structure. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Mildly rough tannins. Curiously good mix of watermelon and cranberry flavors.
