The nose is refined and layered, offering notes of red cherry, wild strawberry, rose petal, dried herbs, tar, and a distinctive stony, savory edge.\n\nOn the palate, it is firm and focused, with bright acidity, fine-grained tannins, and a linear, mineral-driven core. The fruit is precise rather than lavish, evolving toward earthy, balsamic, and floral nuances with age. This is a wine built for the long haul and should gain complexity over many years in bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGattinara is one of the most distinctive sites in Piedmont, shaped by volcanic soils rich in minerals that lend the wines their taut structure and savory character. Nebbiolo is typically harvested by hand at full ripeness, with careful selection to preserve the grape’s natural aromatic complexity and tannic backbone.\n\nVinification aims to respect the transparency of the site, often relying on traditional methods and patient élevage to refine the wine without masking its character. The result is a Nebbiolo that reflects both the power of the appellation and the finesse of a modern, detail-oriented producer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is an excellent match for braised veal, roast lamb, game birds, porcini mushrooms, truffle dishes, and aged hard cheeses such as Parmigiano Reggiano or Pecorino.
