Antoniolo Gattinara 2012

Gattinara, Italy
7.0
WineSaint
Ripe and forward with generous black cherry fruit that shows the vintage's warmth. Earthy notes of dried herbs, leather and woodsmoke add depth to the plush core. The tannins are soft and approachable, making this more immediately gratifying than usual for Gattinara. A successful expression that prioritizes charm over austerity.
