The color of Nervi's Gattinara DOCG presents an intense garnet red that tends towards orange hues with aging. On the nose, it opens with a captivating bouquet of aromas ranging from cherry and berry notes to hints of violet, licorice, and sweet spices, with a slight aftertaste of tobacco and leather, typical of aged Nebbiolo.
On the palate, the wine offers a robust yet harmonious structure, with finely woven tannins and a persistent freshness that balances its richness. The long maturation in wooden barrels enriches the complexity of the wine, allowing it to develop an extraordinarily balanced palate, with a persistent and elegant finish.
Ideal for pairing with flavorful dishes such as roasted red meats, game, or aged cheeses, Gattinara DOCG from Nervi stands out for its ability to evolve beautifully over time, offering a tasting experience that becomes more enriching with the years.
Served at the optimal temperature of 18°C (64°F), this wine not only enhances special occasions but is also a superb testament to Piedmontese wine tradition, promising an unforgettable sensory experience with every sip.
