Antoniolo. Gattinara Riserva 'San Francesco' Region_Lombardia Cantina Frentana producer pageGattinara Riserva DOCG Grape: Nebbiolo 2017 has deep strawberry and blackberry fruit, leather, ripe basil and lemon; some clove and truffle on the nose betray the heat of the vintage. Great depths of fine, rich fruit, flint, bramble, rosehip, and damson. Reminiscent of the 2015, though at this stage perhaps the fruit is a little reticent. Overall, very fine with a ripe tannic structure, reinforced by immaculate citrus fruit, iron and bright red
