---|---|
Description: | Practicing Organic Farming. 100% Nebbiolo. "With a history dating back to 1906, and perhaps the finest vineyard holdings in the region, Nervi is The historically resonant name in Gattinara. The estate was purchased by Barolo icon, Roberto Conterno, in 2018. With his uncompromising approach and two energetic sons Roberto promises to restore this regions profile as a source of world class Nebbiolo wines. Technique will undoubtedly evolve over the first few vintages of Robertos stewardship, but Nervi has been very traditional in outlook and that will definitely Not change. Vineyards are 28.5 ha of Nebbiolo spread over the historic crus of Molsino, Valferana, Garavoglie, and Casacce. Viticulture is practicing organic, with the least intervention possible. Reds are fermented in stainless (Gattinara) and wooden uprights (Crus) before malolactic fermentation and long aging [at least 30 months] in large, neutral oak barrels. No fining or filtration. " - The Rare Wine Co. Vinous Media 94 Points - "The 2019 Gattinara is bright, effusive and exquisitely beautiful. Silky tannins and compelling inner perfume showcase the more delicate, understated side of the appellation. Elegant and wonderfully precise, the 2019 is a total knock out. Sadly, production is down 35%." - Antonio Galloni |
