Gattinara Riserva "Cesare" DOCG
A special selection of Gattinara, produced exclusively in the best years with 100% Nebbiolo grapes from vineyards on mineral-rich volcanic hills. After rigorous selection and prolonged maceration, the wine ages for five years in a 1580-litre oak barrel custom-built for it. The result is an elegant and surprising wine, with few added sulfites.
