Delsignore Borgofranco Gattinara DOCG Riserva
An elegant Nebbiolo from the hills of Gattinara, born from volcanic soils rich in minerals and iron. After aging for over 42 months in oak barrels, this wine reveals a refined structure with notes of ripe red fruit, spices, and a subtle mineral depth. Complex, powerful, and with a long, silky finish, it pairs perfectly with red meat, game, and aged cheeses.

Grape variety
Nebbiolo
This is a noble, late-ripening grape variety from Piedmont, northern Italy, known as the foundation for great wines like Barolo and Barbaresco. It produces wines with a light color yet powerful structure, firm tannins, and fresh acidity. Typical aromas include rose, violet, red fruit, and earthy notes of tar and truffle. Nebbiolo wines develop beautifully with age, developing complex nuances of leather, tobacco, and spice.
