Fausto and Cinzia Cellario are third generation winemakers, so they have learned with experience that Piedmont’s once famous Grignolino variety has only one single drawback. The traditional 750ml bottle is not big enough to contain a wine this delicious. Thus, this one comes in a liter. Cellario works with an eye-popping 24 different grape varieties, and they are a surprisingly large producer – with about 30 hectares of vineyard – considering they’re family owned, use only native yeast fermentation, minimal sulfur, and farm organically. Their wines are always fresh, bright and berry scented, but there’s an argument that their freshest and brightest is this Grignolino, or Grino. Cranberries, raspberries and ruby red cherries burst from the glass with an edge of oregano and pepper that helps to set the scene in Piedmont. The palate is light bodied and crisp but full-flavored, with more crushed red berries and a surprisingly strong note of tilled clay earth. The finish is savory, with a gentle squeeze of tannin. Charcuterie on a sunny day is the natural choice, but even when it’s raining and you’re eating leftovers, this Grino will still do.
