A relatively new & exciting Barolo estate based in Grinzane Cavour, Bruna Grimaldi & her husband Franco took over from her parents Giovanni & Clara in the 1990s; Giovanni had joined his father supplying the local mkt while Clara (nata Scarzello) came from Serralunga d'Alba, bringing with her the top cru Badarina. Today Bruna & Franco are joined by their two talented children, Simone (since 2014) & Martina (2018). Their c. 15ha vineyards cover five comunes: Grinzane Cavour, Roddi, Verduno, La Morra, & Serralunga d'Alba, from which they produce four Barolos; one traditional blend, & two or three single vineyard expressions depending on the vintage. They also produce a fruity Barbera d'Alba, a cool Dolcetto, & a fine Langhe Arneis
Their delightful Pinot-esque 2024 Nebbiolo d'Alba 'Bonurei' - named after the original vyd in Diano - is a blend of fruit from three comunes Diano, Roddi, & Sinio aged briefly in 50 & 100HL botte grande.
