Description
The site for the Barolo Gattera is located lower down the slope, near the Castiglione Falletto border, where there is a greater limestone influence. This vineyard has the estate’s oldest vines, which were planted in 1950. Alessandro tends to use a proportion of whole bunches here, and this year has opted to reduce the proportion of new oak a little. The fine-grained tannins of the vintage are evident as the limestone gives more structure, but the palate evolves into something creamier, with strawberry notes and a rich, almost savoury yet sunny finish. Drink 2025 – 2042
