2020 Travaglini Gattinara Riserva

Travaglini Gattinara Riserva 2020 is a refined expression of Nebbiolo from one of Piemonte’s most distinctive appellations, crafted by a producer long associated with elegance, structure, and age-worthy wines. Gattinara’s volcanic soils and cooler northern Piedmont climate give this Riserva a bright, mineral-driven character that sets it apart from more familiar Nebbiolo styles.

Tasting Notes
Expect a garnet-hued wine with a luminous rim, showing the classic clarity and finesse of Gattinara. The nose is likely to unfold with red cherry, wild strawberry, dried rose, licorice, iron, and subtle spice, with a mineral edge that reflects the region’s volcanic soils. On the palate, it should feel layered and precise, with firm yet polished tannins, fresh acidity, and flavors of sour cherry, pomegranate, tobacco, earth, and savory herbs. As a Riserva, it has the structure to develop beautifully over time, gaining complexity with age and rewarding patience over the next several years.

Production
Gattinara sits in the northern reaches of Piemonte, where volcanic and porphyritic soils lend the wines their unmistakable mineral backbone and lifted aromatic profile. Travaglini is known for working with Nebbiolo in this terroir, where the grape benefits from long ripening, careful harvesting, and vinification designed to preserve freshness, perfume, and structure.

Food & Serving
This wine is a natural match for braised meats, roast beef, game, mushroom risotto, and aged cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for at least an hour to allow the wine’s aromatic complexity and tannins to open fully.

Producer
Travaglini is one of the most respected names in Gattinara, helping define the identity of this small but historic wine zone in northern Piemonte. The estate is widely recognized for its dedication to Nebbiolo and for producing wines that combine elegance, longevity, and a strong sense of place.
