Grignolino, Arditi - 2023

1.5
Item # 43236

Grignolino is a local Piedmontese grape variety that is very small in size, meaning that the fruit to skin ratio is quite small, giving good depth and structure in spite of the ruby clear color you'll find visually. This is excellent to have on hand for any occasion be it a sipping wine or a wine to pair with pizza.

Staff Pick Notes

Neat-o. Here is an inexpensive magnum 1.5 liter bottle of Grignolino--a chillable and chuggable red that has beautiful lightness while still being dry and firm on the palate.

It isn't as well known in the states as its bigger siblings, Nebbiolo, Dolcetto, and Barbera. But hey, with summer coming on, here is a light red chiller that you can add to your repertoire.

Several other Piedmontese grapes make striking and delicious wines: Pelaverga produces light-colored reds with distinctive notes of strawberry, cherry, and pink peppercorn. The red Freisa is vinified in a variety of styles:...

Grignolino

The Grignolino grape derives its name from grignole, meaning "pips." This small-berried red variety makes some truly intriguing wines, because the grapes produce very little juice in proportion to the amount of pips and skins. These elements, combined in these proportions, yield deliciously earthy wines that are pale in color (often resembling Beaujolais), and unexpectedly tannic.
