2017 Travaglini Nebbiolo Coste Della Sesia

The winery started this label in 1958 and it is in the third generation, they have 59 of the 100 hectares total so they are over 1/2 of the appellation. This is from the young vines and is 100% Nebbiolo aged for 10 months in Slovenian oak, this wine has a rather rustic quality to it dried cherry, fine herbs and black spices, tar and black truffle. There are only 3 producers of Gattinara in the export market and only 5-6 local producers. This is a nice entry level nebbiolo with soft tannins and lovely freshness through the finish featuring a distinct minerality. Very Good
