  • TASTING NOTE: The 2021 Barolo Ginestra Casa Matè is fabulous. Bright and transparent, with captivating depth, the 2021 is a stunning beauty. Enveloping balsamic notes make a strong opening statement that remains a theme here. Blue/purplish fruit, lavender, spice and blood orange all come alive in the glass. What a wine!

  • ABOUT THE WINE: The vinification procedure for Casa Maté® Barolo Docg Ginestra involves alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, with daily pumping over. After completing malolactic fermentation, the wine matures in 25-hectolitre barrels of Slavonian oak. Bottling normally takes place in August. The Casa Maté® Barolo Docg Ginestra then stays in the binning cellar for 8-10 months before release.
