Tre Vigne

By Giancarlo Travaglini, Alto Piemonte, Piemonte, Italy

Giancarlo Travaglini Tre Vigne

A blend of grapes from three vineyards in Gattinara, each contributing its own terroir character; positioned between Gattinara Classico and Gattinara Riserva in style, balancing structure with harmony.

Tasting notes

Visually: bright ruby red colour with orange reflections, delicate transparency. Olfactory: balsamic sensations of cloves, liquorice, cinchona and iron traces, with a fruity sequence of cherry, strawberry and, at times, vegetal notes. Flavour: elegant and refined in its balance, played on freshness and fine tannic extraction, with a long, tasty, savoury finish.
