Elio Grasso（里奥拉索酒庄）位于意大利Piedmont（皮埃蒙特）Barolo（巴罗洛）最好的产区 Monforte d’Alba，这里在 20 世纪初就开始种植葡萄，庄主Elio Grasso 于1979年放弃了银行的工作跑到 Monforte 经营这间 14公顷的酒庄，在大师 Aldo 的协助与建议，Elio Grasso  在古典派与现代派间开创了自我的风格，他的几款酒被认为是整个 Barolo 地区最为杰出酒款之ㄧ，而他的儿子 Gianluca Grasso 从酿酒学校毕业后，担任酒庄的酿酒师，GianLuca 第一次酿酒，就得到 Gambero Rosso “ Red Wine of the Year ” 的肯定，Antonio Galloni ( Parker杂志专门评分意大利酒的专家)说 : Elio Grasso 的儿子 Gianluca 是 Piedmont 地区，最年轻耀眼的酿酒师之一。

酒庄现在有三个单一葡萄园的 Barolo : 其中两个 Gavarini Vigna Chiniera 和 Ginestra Vigna Casa Maté 是储存于南斯拉夫大橡木桶里，是传统派的酒款。另一个 Barolo Rüncot（亦是小编特别推介款） 占地 1.8 公顷，位于海拔 300~320 公尺，面向南方的 Barolo Rüncot 单一葡萄园，以现代的方式酿制葡萄酒，存放在法国橡木桶内 28~30 个月，之后再到不锈钢桶内进行乳酸发酵。Barolo Rüncot Riserva 只有在绝佳的年度才有生产。每年 70,000 瓶的产量。

事实上，在20世纪80年代早期，该家族曾经决定做回最初只作为一名葡萄种植者的角色，但是后来却意识到他们的工作绝不止于葡萄树的种植。他们在很长一段时间都没有一些建设性的想法。直到1978年，该家族开始决定将来自不同葡萄园的葡萄分开酿酒，并独立装瓶。当时，酒庄的目标便是在市场上赢得一席之地。酒庄的第一步便是重新种植Nebbiolo、Barbera和Dolcetto葡萄。在1986年，该酒庄还引进了少量的非本地品种Chardonnay，经过栽培后，这种葡萄能更好地体现本地的风土特征。如今，该酒庄年出口量不超过70000瓶，这样更有利于家族对酒庄的管理与经营，能从葡萄园的种植到酿酒的每一环节都能监管到位。

Elio Grasso’s Runcot Riserva has a serious following among Barolo collectors. The 2007 shows amazing purity of fruit, with strawberry, cherry and floral character. It’s full-bodied, with superb tannins—and the fruit goes on for minutes.

The flagship 2007 Barolo Riserva Runcot is remarkably fresh for the year. Sweet, perfumed and sensual, the 2007 wraps around the palate with stunning depth and sheer radiance. Layers of expressive red fruit, flowers, spices and mint all come to life as the wine opens up. The Runcot captures the best qualities of the year; deep fruit, expressive aromatics and wonderful nuance, all in a soft, supple wine that should enjoy a long drinking window. I can’t wait to see how the 2007 ages. Today it is seamless and utterly impeccable from the very first taste. This is without question one of the great 2007s. Grasso gave the 2007 40 days on the skins, followed by 45 months in 100% new French oak barrels, all of which the wine handles with grace to burn.

Elio Grasso did not produce the Barolo Riserva in 2005, 2009 or 2011. However, you can enjoy the stunning 2007 Barolo Riserva Runcot shortly. Super-low yields in the vineyard (down to three clusters per vine) make for a wine of enormous intensity and beauty. The whole effect is truly spectacular. Soaring aromas of dark fruit, licorice, tar, pressed rose, lavender, garden herb, dried mint and brimstone develop momentum and power with each swirl of the glass. Nebbiolo-s trademark structure holds the wine together, but the beautiful 2007 vintage has added its part with extra layers of softness and richness. This is pure pleasure. Anticipated maturity: 2016-2038.

Rich and open, offering a lush, velvety texture and ripe cherry notes that conceal a core of iron, licorice and eucalyptus. This is firm, focused and vibrant, with lively acidity driving the fresh, resonant finish. Approachable now, but should be better in a few years. Best from 2015 through 2030.
