JS James Suckling: 96 Points
A restrained and smoky wine with a lot of freshness, showing aromas of potpourri, wild strawberries, citrus leaves and stony minerality. Full-bodied, it shows the firmness of nebbiolo well balanced by fruit concentration, refreshing acidity and a savory finish. Precise and balanced.

The 2021 Gattinara is bright and punchy. A fine introduction to the range, the 2021 possesses notable depth. There is a bit of angularity in the tannins. This is far from an easygoing wine.

Vanilla, Bourbon and toasty oak accents frame cherry and strawberry flavors in this racy red. Underscored by eucalyptus and mineral notes, ending with a grip of chewy tannins. Give this time to absorb the oak. Best from 2027 through 2038.
