The 2013 Gattinara Valferana is super-expressive today. It is lifted and vertical in feel, with the energy and tension that is typical of the Nebbiolos of Gattinara. An explosion of mountain flowers, herbs and bright red stone fruits, along with beams of fine tannin, give the wine its feel. Bright, saline notes extend the nuanced, crystalline finish. Its classic style notwithstanding, the 2013 has enough mid-palate generosity to drink well with minimal cellaring.In Bond€633.00 -

The 2014 Gattinara Vigna Valferana is a more immediate Nebbiolo, with beautiful aromas that are a bit more broad in scope than other expressions' bouquets. You get some dark spice and a variety of herbal notes. There is a pretty sweetness, too, and a general grandeur to this profile. As beautiful as this 2014 is, Roberto Conterno is even more excited about the 2018 vintage that is coming down the line.In Bond€814.00 -

The 2016 Gattinara Vigna Valferana is every bit as impressive from bottle as it was from cask. Rich and resonant, the 2016 is so supremely beautiful as it opens up in the glass. It is a wine of real breadth and textural expansiveness. Rose petal, mint, sweet dried cherry, tar, anise and orange peel are some of the nuances that emerge, but the Valferana is a wine to admire for its total sense of balance. In a word: Lights out. Make that two words.In Bond€348.00 -

The 2018 Gattinara Valferana is explosive right out of the glass. Supporting veins of tannin carry a core of red fruit, cinnamon, rose petal, blood orange, mint and white pepper. The Valferana is complex and wonderfully deep from start to finish. Valferana is the cooler of the two single vineyard Gattinaras that are bottled separately here. The 2018 is a special wine.In Bond€312.00 -

What makes the Conterno Nervi 2020 Gattinara Vigna Valferana so irresistible are those ferrous metallic and mineral notes that define the bouquet. You recognize volcanic rock, crushed red stone and other aromas that are evocative of the vineyard's geology. Vigne Valferana and Molsino have different climates, but generally speaking, these wines offer more accessible tannins and more fullness compared to Barolo. This wine is especially luminous and bright, with a lifted and elegant quality to the bouquet.In Bond€468.00 -

Grapes from multiple blocks on the farm, each with a slightly different soil structure but essentially granite based. Limited whole-bunch fermentation. Matured for 11 months in 228-litre barrels, 29% new. Exotic aromatics of red and black berries, orange, earth and a touch of reduction. Impressive depth of fruit, bright acidity and fine-grained, tight-knit tannins. Rich but balanced, this is Pinot at its most seductive. Alc: 14%.In Bond€202.00
