CANTINA DELSIGNORE GATTINARA IL PUTTO 2019

Bright red cherry, dried rose, and iron-tinged earth come through immediately in this 2019 Gattinara — a direct read on the appellation's granite and porphyry soils, which sit on volcanic bedrock and carry a distinctly acidic, mineral-rich pH. Cantina Delsignore draws from Permolone and Lurghe vineyards in this historic Piedmontese DOCG, where Nebbiolo builds structure under high-altitude conditions. Extended maceration followed by 26 months in neutral Slavonian oak keeps the fruit honest and the tannins fine-grained, with sandalwood and alpine herb on a long, dry finish.
