GATTINARA DOCG – 2008

prodotti details


After a very mild winter, the spring was wet and cool and the summer variable with short periods of extreme heat followed by cool temperatures. An Indian summer in October with splendid sunny days and cool nights allowed for a late harvest.
 
The 2008 vintage has a fuller colour than usual due to full maturation of the skins. Sweet fruit, apricots, peach and citrus fruit dominate the bouquet, on the palate it is powerful, with slight notes of iron and iodine. The tannins are intense and vibrant and combine with the typical acidity and mineral character of Gattinara with balance and power. A glass for those who like the natural coarser nature of Nebbiolo.
