Conterno Nervi Vigna Valferana Gattinara 2019

The 2019 Gattinara Valferrana is a dark, potent wine. It deftly marries fruit intensity with elegance, with deep notes of lavender, spice, menthol and crushed rocks. Time in the glass works wonders here. If anything, I may have underestimated this last year! Drinking window: 2027-2049. Score – 96+. (Antonio Galloni, vinous.com, Feb. 6, 2024)
