Saturated cherry and plum fruit shows impressive depth for this difficult vintage. Leather, cedar and warm spice add complexity to the muscular frame. The tannins are firm but well-integrated, providing structure without overwhelming the fruit. Shows Antoniolo's skill in navigating 2012's challenges. Drink 2018-2028.

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.
