Winemaking
The vines for the Chardonnay Educato were planted in the upper most area of the vineyard in 1985, and are therefore in the coolest locations of the Grassos winegrowing area. 50% of fermentation and maturation takes place in barrels, and the other 50% in stainless steel tanks.
Our tasting note
The aroma is amazingly fruity and exotic for a Chardonnay. Green fruit elements of apple and pear as well as exotic notes of apricot, pineapple and white peach. On the palate, the wine presents itself as somewhat dry with juicy, creamy aromas of yellow fruits. The crisp acidity ensures that you can't wait for the next sip. Harmonic, long finish.
Elio Grasso
The great Barolista and Grand Seigneur Elio Grasso is a strict and self-critical winemaker from Piedmont. He and his warm-hearted wife Marina and capable son Gianluca are able to produce authentic wines with a strong emphasis on the terroir using 18 hectares of prime sites. He has found his own unmistakable signature with his unique Baroli Gavarini Chiniera and Ginestra Casa Maté , which perfectly master the balancing act between robustness and elegance. The Grasso's consider the work in the vineyard more important than the work in the cellar and rightly feel more like winegrowers than wine makers.
