Gattinara Wine Tour

Gattinara Territory

At first glance, some of the vineyards above the medieval town of Gattinara bear a striking resemblance to the hillsides of Barolo which lay 90 miles to the south. Tall-growing Nebbiolo vines hug an ensemble of steep, rounded slopes with exposure in all directions.

But less-apparent differences, in climate and soil, give the wines of Gattinara their own distinctive character. The Alps loom closer, most notably the glacial peak of Monte Rosa, cooling the nights and bringing in frequent rain.

The earth itself is nothing like Barolo’s clay and sand: the ground is a tough, stony mixture of red volcanic porphyry and granite.
