The Gattinara best expresses the classic qualities of the appellation; it is a wine with marked minerality and complexity.
Deep ruby red in color with garnet reflections. On the nose, aromas of red fruit, blackberry, plum and licorice with hints of vanilla and leather. Full-bodied palate, with intense flavors of cherry, raspberry and spice culminating in a long and smooth finish. Outstanding with red meat, game, and hard cheeses.
Recommended aging from 3 to 10 years, but this wine will easily maintain its integrity for years following.
