The hills of Gattinara cover very few hectares and are among the most evocative in Italy with small historic vineyards set on steep hills.
The vineyards are difficult to work and the almost entirely manual cultivation give an additional value to this fantastic wine. In addition to this, however, the main feature that makes Gattinara unique is the composition of volcanic soil.
The color is ruby red with orange reflections, the scent is reminiscent of purple and the palate is dry and with a bitter bottom.
Nebbiolo is a grape that particularly loves these characteristics, this gives the wine a certain austerity, vigorous tannins, but at the same time a great character and complexity.
