We have another fantastic high-scoring bottle of Gattinara from Cantina DelSignore, which comes in at slightly lower pricing than the Borgofranco we offered a few days ago. The 2019 "Il Putto" is a beautiful wine from Gattinara from this semi-historic estate with roots stemming from the famed Nervi family. Established in the early 20th century, Cantina Delsignore has a small vineyard footprint of only a few hectares, focusing on quality over quantity, with vineyards meticulously cared for to ensure the highest quality of grapes. Led by Stefano Dorelli, whose grandmother was a Nervi, the wines here have a classic flair honoring the Nervi name. The 2019 "Il Putto" embodies the winery's traditional winemaking approach, utilizing handpicked grapes and aging in oak barrels to enhance the wine's complexity and longevity. This particular vintage is notable for its elegant structure, balanced tannins, and depth of flavor that accurately reflects the mineral-rich soils and cool climate of the Gattinara region. It is a testament to the winery's commitment to preserving the historical winemaking traditions of the area while embracing sustainable practices to ensure the vineyard's health and longevity. This is a tremendous value, and with a big note from Galloni, it's one of the best buys for Italian Reds this vintage and one of the highest-scoring Piedmont wines we have ever offered at this pricing.
Antonio Galloni 96 points! "Silky, elegant and wonderfully nuanced, the 2019 Gattinara ll Putto is seriously impressive. All the elements are impeccably balanced. Soaring aromatics meld into a core of bright, red-toned fruit. Medium in body, yet deep and resonant, this classically built Gattinara is fabulous. I especially admire the energy and purity here."
