Antoniolo Gattinara San Francesco 2003

Gattinara, Italy

WineSaint
Powerful and brooding, with dense cassis and blackberry wrapped in espresso, dark chocolate and warming spice. The 2003 vintage shows in the wine's concentrated fruit and broad shoulders, yet there's enough structure beneath to reward patience. Approachable now for those who enjoy youthful intensity, but should gain elegance through 2015.

Antoniolo
→Antoniolo is one of Gattinara's benchmark estates, producing age-worthy Nebbiolo from the appellation's volcanic soils across three distinct single-vineyard Riservas that define what northern Piedmont can achieve.
