Giovanni Manzone's estate is located in the Castelletto zone of Monforte, which is also the source for his Barolos Le Gramolere and Le Gramolere Bricat. There is also a third Barolo produced from the Santo Stefano di Perno vineyard. Although the house style incorporates elements of both traditional and modern approaches to vinification and aging, the wines aren't as flashy as those of the super- modernists. In addition, Manzone's vineyards are fairly high in altitude for the zone. These elements combine to produce highly idiosyncratic wines of much personality. The Barolos can sometimes seem a bit awkward at first but I always find myself drawn in to them, as long as I am patient.
