Gattinara Riserva Magnum DOCG 2018 - Paride Iaretti

Gattinara Riserva DOCG by Paride Iaretti is a red wine that embodies the elegance and complexity of Alto Piemonte. Produced exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes, this wine stands out for its intense garnet red color. On the nose, it offers a fruity and surprisingly youthful bouquet, rich and complex enriched by tertiary notes of spices and licorice important deriving from aging in wood. The palate is enveloped by a solid structure, soft tannins and a persistent almost mineral finish that leaves a lasting impression. This wine is ideal for pairing with meat dishes such as roast and aged cheeses, but is also perfect to enjoy on special occasions where elegance is de rigueur.

The company founded by Paride Iaretti is located in Gattinara, one of the most important wine-growing areas of Piedmont. The vineyards owned are about 4 hectares, almost exclusively Nebbiolo, which produce about 30,000 bottles per year.
Vigna Valferana, Vigna Bogianetta, Vigna Guardia and Vigna Villetto are the names of the Crus from which the company's Gattinara DOCG wines come.
In the cellar, the wine is refined in tonneaux, barriques and oak barrels, aided by time and the seasons, but the true character of these wines is forged much earlier; it takes body and heart from the work done in the vineyard, from the daily commitment and the continuous care of the vines.
