Northern Piedmont is renowned for producing elegant Nebbiolo wines, distinct from the bold styles of Barolo and Barbaresco. The cooler, mountainous terroir of Gattinara and surrounding areas yields refined, aromatic wines with remarkable ageing potential. Among the DOC and DOCG regions in Novara, Vercelli, and Biella provinces, Gattinara stands out for its 100% Nebbiolo wines. Giancarlo Travaglini has championed Gattinara’s legacy over four decades, elevating its reputation globally. These wines, shaped by volcanic soils and alpine freshness, deliver delicate floral notes and earthy complexity, making them a great choice for both seasoned collectors and those simply looking to enjoy something special.

Ettore Germano, a historic Piedmont estate established in 1856, crafts this Barolo from south-facing vineyards in Serralunga d’Alba, renowned for producing structured and age-worthy wines. Made from 100% Nebbiolo, the wine is fermented in stainless steel and aged for 24 months in large oak barrels. It offers aromas of red cherries, dried roses, liquorice, and subtle spices, with hints of tobacco and truffle emerging as it evolves. The palate is full-bodied with firm tannins, bright acidity, and flavours of ripe red fruits and earthy undertones. Perfect with rich meat dishes or truffle-based recipes, it promises decades of ageing potential.
