96pts James Suckling

A restrained and smoky wine with a lot of freshness, showing aromas of potpourri, wild strawberries, citrus leaves and stony minerality. Full-bodied, it shows the firmness of nebbiolo well balanced by fruit concentration, refreshing acidity and a savory finish. Precise and balanced.

The 2021 Gattinara is bright and punchy. A fine introduction to the range, the 2021 possesses notable depth. There is a bit of angularity in the tannins. This is far from an easygoing wine.

90pts Wine Spectator

Vanilla, Bourbon and toasty oak accents frame cherry and strawberry flavors in this racy red. Underscored by eucalyptus and mineral notes, ending with a grip of chewy tannins. Give this time to absorb the oak. Best from 2027 through 2038.

Tasting Notes

Vintage and bright ruby red colour, attracting the eye with its delicate transparency. Soft floral aromas, from violets to rose petals, taking on spicy and balsamic notes over time. Its finish offers hints of minerals and iron at times. Elegant with a balance between freshness, barely outlined noble tannins and a subtle, infinite persistence of small red fruits, flowers and fruit jellies.
