Gattinara DOCG Vigna Valferana
Ideally suited Cru, Valferana Vineyard gives us this great wine from a
rich in iron soil. In the mouth it is elegant, full-bodied and savoury, with
minerality and ferrous nuances. A wine with great aging potential, the
bottle is best kept laid down in a cool and dark environment.
