Descrizione

The Nebbiolo Rosso Gattinara DOCG Jeroboam 2017 from Torraccia represents an excellence of the Piedmont terroir, more precisely from the prestigious Valsesia area, where Nebbiolo finds ideal conditions to express elegance and complexity. This wine is the result of a careful selection and a long aging process that enhances its organoleptic richness. The garnet color, intense and bright, anticipates enveloping aromas of cherry, dried rose, and subtle notes of sweet spices, intertwined with earthy and tobacco nuances.

The entry is supported by a fine but well-defined tannic structure, backed by a balanced harmony between acidity and softness, which gives longevity to the sip. Ideal paired with grilled red meats, braised dishes, and aged cheeses, this Nebbiolo expresses at its best the authentic character of Gattinara, capturing the essence of its mineral-rich soils and the artisanal mastery of the Torraccia winery.
