Antoniolo Gattinara San Francesco 2013
"Antoniolo remains a reference point for what Nebbiolo in northern Piedmont is all about. I can't recommend these wines highly enough." - Antonio Galloni.
Serious Nebbiolo geeks DRINK this fantastic wine. Spend your big bucks on the Barolos, but DRINK these incredible wines from the extreme northern part of Piemonte. Antoniolo is a rockstar in the Gattinara region and hits all the sweet spots for Barolo and Barbaresco lovers!
Located in northern Piemonte in the commune of Gattinara, this high altitude, cool climate site creates mineral and earth driven Nebbiolo that rivals the very best wines of Barolo and Barbaresco. The Antoniolo family uses a light touch to allow the pure and precise flavors to shine. Founded in 1949 and today operated by Lorella and Alberto Antoniolo, this small 37 acre estate is a standard bearer of Gattinara and the most respected producer in the region.
