Sweet fruit and inviting texture lead the way, but French oak compresses the wine's natural expression. Shows more charm than complexity among Antoniolo's single vineyards this vintage. Additional layers emerge with air, suggesting short-term cellaring will help integration.

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.
