Gattinara docg Vigna Valferana Nervi 2018

Gattinara Vigna Valferana by Cantine Nervi is made with 100% Nebbiolo grapes coming from the name-like vineyard. It's an elegant and intense wine, with a beautiful ruby red colour and maroon shades. The bouquet is wide, with notes of ripe red berries besides complex sensations of cardamom, juniper and alpine herbs. The sip is full-bodied, intense, pleasantly tannic and persistent thanks to the long-lasting wood ageing. Gattinara Vigna Valferana by Cantine Nervi is recommended with stuffed beef, grilled red meat, game and matured cheese.

The origins of the Nervi winery go back to the 1906, when Luigi Nervi decided to buy vineyards in Gattinara and to found a winery to vinify the Nebbiolo grapes. With about 27 hectares of vineyards of Nebbiolo among the hills at the foot of the “Monte Rosa”, the Nervi winery is still today the oldest winery of Gattinara and is a point reference of the North of Piedmont. Giacomo Conterno, a famous wine-maker that comes from the Langhe hills, acquired this winery in 2018. The Gattinara wines of Nervi are deep wines, austere and mineral: they are expression of a traditional style well recognizable.
