Appellation Gattinara - DOC - History and Wines

The Gattinara appellation, located in the prestigious wine region of Piedmont in Italy, is designated as DOC (Denominazione di Origine Controllata). Renowned for its robust red wines, this appellation primarily focuses on the Nebbiolo grape variety. The unique terroir of Gattinara, comprised of volcanic soils and alluvium, imparts remarkable complexity and structure to its wines. Gattinara wines are noted for their longevity, developing subtle aromas of black cherry, violet, truffle, and spices as they age.

The region's continental climate, with hot summers and cold winters, is ideal for the optimal ripening of Nebbiolo, which yields wines with bright acidity and strong tannins. These characteristics make Gattinara wines an excellent choice for wine cellars, as they continue to improve with extended aging. Wine enthusiasts appreciate these wines for their ability to pair well with rich dishes like roasts, game meats, and aged cheeses.

For optimal management of your wine cellar, be sure to include a few bottles of Gattinara DOC to enjoy its exceptional richness and finesse.
