Bruna Grimaldi Barolo Camilla 2021

Produced by Bruna Grimaldi in Grinzane Cavour in the Barolo DOCG area of the Langhe, Piedmont, this Barolo reflects the estate’s modern yet terroir-focused approach to Nebbiolo. The family winery, established in the 1990s, works across several well-exposed vineyard parcels in the Barolo zone, with a focus on careful vineyard management and precise winemaking to express purity and site character. The vineyards are planted on a mix of clay, limestone and sandstone soils typical of the region, where the contrast between warmer southern exposures and cooling Alpine influences helps preserve acidity, fragrance and structure.

Made from 100% Nebbiolo, the wine is vinified with temperature-controlled fermentation and gentle extraction to retain aromatic finesse and varietal clarity. Ageing takes place in a combination of large Slavonian oak casks and French oak barrels, allowing the wine to develop structure and complexity while preserving fruit definition. The wine shows classic Barolo aromas of red cherry, dried rose petals and cranberry alongside notes of tar, spice and subtle earthy minerality. The palate is structured and finely grained, with firm yet refined tannins, bright acidity and a long, savoury finish. Elegant and traditionally styled with a modern polish, it pairs beautifully with braised meats, truffle dishes and mature cheeses.
