The Nebbiolo Rosso Gattinara DOCG 2006 by Torraccia is an authentic expression of Piedmont, more precisely from the historic area of Gattinara, famous for wines made from the unique Nebbiolo locally known as Spanna. This vintage stands out for the elegance given by long aging, which enhances the tannic structure typical of the grape variety and provides olfactory complexity.

On the nose, there are aromas of withered rose, Mediterranean aromatic herbs, and delicate notes of tar, along with a hint of ripe red fruits that amplify the enveloping and persistent sensation. On the palate, it is intense, with a perfect balance between freshness and body, capable of evolving positively over the years.

Perfect companion to traditional Piedmont dishes such as braised meats and roasts, this Gattinara DOCG Magnum 2006 by Torraccia offers a refined sensory experience that highlights the unique terroir of the upper Piedmont hills.
