2019 Conterno Cantine Nervi Gattinara ‘Valferana’ MAGNUM

A wine of soaring intensity, the 2019 Gattinara Valferana opens with intensely floral aromatics that are immediately alluring. Bright, red-fleshed fruit, chalk and mint lend notable inner sweetness. At times, the Valferana is quite potent, in other moments it presents notable finesse. That counterpoint makes for an absolutely compelling Gattinara that readers will want in their cellars.
