Over het wijnhuis | Bruna Grimaldi is een vooruitstrevende Barolo-producent uit de kleine Barolo-comune Grinzane Cavour. Het dorpje is qua naam en imago vele malen groter dan zijn oppervlakte. Uit het dorpje komen waanzinnige, vaak onontdekte en betaalbare Barolo’s vandaan, zoals die van Bruna Grimaldi. |
Wijngaard en regio | Afkomstig van de cru-wijngaard Badarina in de comune (gemeente) Serralunga d'Alba in Barolo. De wijngaard is kalkhoudend, ligt op 420 meter boven zeeniveau en is gericht op het zuiden/zuidoosten. De wijnstokken zijn ongeveer 25 jaar oud. |
Vinificatie | Traditionele vergisting met een schilweking van 20 tot 30 dagen. Daarna ondergaat de wijn een rijping in grote houten vaten gedurende 24 tot 30 maanden. Na de houtrijping rijpt de wijn nog 8 tot 10 maanden in de fles. |
Kleur | Granaatrood. |
Geur | Viooltjes, peper, frambozen, teer, balsamico, wilde bessen en leer. |
Smaak | Volle, robuuste wijn met indrukken van rood fruit (frambozen, kersen) en kruiden (kaneel, tabak), die eindigt in een lange afdronk. |
Serveren bij | Heerlijk bij rokerige gerechten, bijvoorbeeld met gegrilde ribeye of tournedos met paddenstoelen. |
Serveertemperatuur | 16-18 °C |

Awards | "Enticing aromas of dark cherry, bay laurel and peppermint are revealed with coaxing. Midweight rather than full, this isn’t massively concentrated. Rather, it is vertically driven with great mineral depth and a bitter chocolate edge. The tannins are strong but seamlessly integrated, and there's a sapid saline tang on the finish. While Bruna established her estate in Grinzane Cavour, she has strong ties to Serralunga d’Alba as her mother was born and raised in the heart of Badarina. At 420m, the steep east-facing plot is always the last to be picked." - Decanter "Serralunga d’Alba. Mid ruby. Minerally and savoury rather than fruity at this stage, but there is some fine perfumed red fruit hiding underneath all of this. Concentrated, fresh, sour cherry on the palate with gritty, ripe tannins that are noticeable but stay perfectly underneath the fruit. Very long and focused. (WS)" - Jancis Robinson "The Bruna Grimaldi 2021 Barolo Badarina is slightly sweeter in terms of its bouquet, with a ripe fruit profile that reminds me of raspberry jelly and crème de cassis. That sweetness eventually leans into earthy aromas and lightly toasted spice. The wine offers smooth tannins and an accessible overall feel. Badarina is located in Serralunga d'Alba at 440 meters in elevation. There is a tiny part of fruit from the Vigna Regnola, although most of that fruit went to a wine that will be released in 2026. Regnola is a subsection that is pulled apart for its own bottling and has also been featured in the Riserva. This is a release of 5,777 bottles." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "A subtle and fresh Barolo with aromas of flowers, Parma violets, almonds, restrained red fruit and spices. Medium- to full-bodied with crisp acidity and velvety tannins that are well integrated with supple fruit. Dusty finish. Try from 2026." - James Suckling "The 2020 Barolo Badarina opens with crushed flowers, spice, mint and dried herbs. This mid-weight, rather nervy Barolo offers a good bit of aromatic intensity to match its taut frame. I admire its energy and somewhat quirky personality. Bright acids pull it all together on the finish. This is an especially savory style that is quite typical of the site." - 92 punten, Vinous over de 2020-vintage "Balsamic aromas of camphor mingle with ripe berries, leather and a whiff of hazelnut. On the full-bodied, concentrated palate, velvety tannins envelope dried cherry, licorice, coffee bean and the warmth of evident alcohol. Drink 2024–2029." - 94 punten, Wine Enthusiast over de 2017-vintage 3 glaasjes - Gambero Rosso over de 2019-vintage |
