Travaglini Nebbiolo Coste della Sesia 2020

Gattinara, Piedmont, ItalyNebbiolo light is always an appealing way to introduce you to the northern Italian reds. The Travaglini family has produced estate wines off 59 hectares of vineyards covering roughly 50% of the total Gattinara DOCG for four generations. Expect refreshing young vine wines with bright acidity and dry, if soft, tannins. Roses, plums, and leathers mark the nose and spill onto the palate with more black cherries, plums, licorice, and spice. It's not quite rustic, but I need some spaghetti, meatballs, or a favourite hard cheese (the older, the better). The wine is aged 4 months in stainless steel tanks and 10 months in used Slavonian oak casks.Tasted: 30 August 2024Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
