Cantina Sociale Gattinara 2017

Hand-harvested grapes are destemmed prior to a soft pressing. Native fermentation takes place in a combination of large oak casks and cement tanks without temperature control. In these vessels, maceration lasts up to 30 days. Secondary fermentation occurs naturally in the same vessels. Aged for a minimum of two years in Slavonian botti of 20 hl or larger followed by at least one additional year in cement tanks. Finally, the wine spends a minimum of six months in bottle prior to release.

Fresh and elegant profile with fine tannins and purity of fruit. It displays floral aromas with hints of violets and rose petals, alongside spicy and balsamic notes. The palate is marked by a balance of freshness and noble tannins, with a persistent finish featuring small red fruits and floral elements.
