Grignolino 2024

The Gaudio family established their family winery on the Mondalino hill - bricco in Italian - in Monferrato in 1973. Here, Beatrice Gaudio crafts a range of deliciuous wines working with the local varieties Barbera, Grignolino, Freisa and the rare Malvasia Nera.

Grignolino is currently enjoying a moment. The grape comes from Monferrato and the name from the word grignole, which means seeds/pips, because it has more seeds than most grape varieties, giving the wine its tannic structure.  But its incredibly light in colour, not unlike a rose' wine, with pale red fruits, floral notes and refreshing acidity.
