Vigna Molsino Gattinara 2020 MG

The Conterno Nervi 2020 Gattinara Vigna Molsino is Barolo-like in character, says vintner Roberto Conterno, although Gattinara tends to be a little warmer throughout the year compared to Barolo, thus rendering a more generous and immediate side of Nebbiolo. This wine is layered with dark fruit, spice and sweet earth. The Vigna Valferana is more mineral and vertical in character, whereas this wine is textured and velvety. Indeed, its name Molsino is a derivative of a local word for "soft."
