Luca Gardin 100

"The emblematic cleanliness of the house in this wine from Ginestra cru, soils rich in limestone and clay between 300 and 350 meters. Nose with notes of pomegranate, wild strawberry, then chamomile and violet, with hints of rosemary and licorice root. Savory-salty, elegant and deep."

"The 2020 Barolo Ginestra Casa Mate is sourced from 65-year-old vines planted in clay-rich soils and displays a deeper transparent ruby color. On the nose, a spicier profile emerges, with notes of licorice, balsamic, cherry liqueur, smoky earth, and pipe tobacco. It shows off a broader and rounder feel on the palate and is fleshy with plush, sweet tannins and a clean, balanced finish. This wine is more approachable in this vintage, and it’s already drinking well."-Audrey Frick

The 2020 Barolo Ginestra Casa Matè is gorgeous. Aromatically captivating and nuanced, the 2020 impresses right out of the gate. All the classic Ginestra signatures are present. Today the tannins are pretty imposing in the positive sense, as they are present, but also impeccably balanced within the wine's frame. This is impressive stuff. The substantial, balsamic-infused Ginestra finish is captivating. - Antonio Galloni
