Travaglini Gattinara 2021
| Damn good Alto Piemonte nebbiolo! Strong garnet color in the glass. Amazing nebbiolo aromas on the nose - orange peel, black tea, violet or rose (I’m bad at distinguishing floral types), a little strawberry and cranberry, a touch of spice, and a tiny whiff of tar. It just keeps throwing something different as it sits in the glass. Lifted and bright entry on the palette with strong acidity, and then a surprisingly rich shot of red fruit in the middle. Drying and chewy tannins on the finish, but no bitterness to my taste buds. Pretty long finish for a ~$40 wine. This is good stuff in my opinion. I’ll say 93 points. I need to get a couple more bottles to throw in the cellar and see if it ages like Barolo. [link] [comments] |
