Barolo Bricco Manzoni
The Barolo Bricco Manzoni is another historic label from the estate. The vineyard was planted in 1968 and purchased by Grasso in the early 1980’s. It is the oldest vineyard owned by the company capable of producing the most robust and austere grapes, perfectly suited for long ageing.
