Gattinara

Riserva

With 55 hectares of vines, Travaglini is the biggest producer in Gattinara and is still expanding. The Nebbiolo for this Riserva is fermented in stainless steel tanks then macerated for 18 days (up to five days longer than the standard Gattinara). It's aged for 40 months in big oak vessels and for another 10 months in bottle. The 2015 is more elegant than powerful, with leafy lightness, whiffs of cacao in depth, and fruit ranging from strawberry to blood orange. On the palate it is full bodied and super-classic, with a tasty attack of tar and chocolate followed by stratified wild strawberry melded with crisp acid and firm, dusty yet ripe tannins. Great integration on the finish.
