This Gattinara Riserva comes from a cooperative so small it could pass for a boutique estate. Forty families each farm their own tiny plots on the zone's pure volcanic soils, about 15 hectares of vines in all, and the whole operation makes around 2,000 cases a year. The Cantina Sociale was founded in 1908 to give Gattinara's growing families a steady path to independence, and to let them keep looking after their own land. That continuity shows in the house style: simple elegance and purity, with a clear link to more than a century of winemaking, rather than polish for its own sake. Even the cellar feels rooted in the place. It sits underneath Gattinara's centuries-old town centre and is filled with cement tanks and large casks. If you love Nebbiolo but would like to drink it somewhere other than Barolo, this sustainably farmed Riserva is an honest, rewarding place to start.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Brasato al Barolo-style beef braised in red wine; agnolotti del plin in roast juices; tajarin with butter and shaved truffle; porcini risotto; aged Piedmontese cheeses like Castelmagno or Toma.

Tasting Profile

Expect the classic Gattinara Riserva profile: red cherry, violet and dried flowers, with savoury hints of tar, dried herbs and a mineral edge. Medium-bodied and dry, with firm, fine-grained tannins softened by extended ageing in large casks, bright acidity and a long, earthy finish. Think of it as a leaner, more perfumed Barolo.
