2014 Nervi Conterno Gattinara Vigneto Molsino
Opzioni di acquisto
Note di degustazione
The 2014 Gattinara Molsino is shy and introverted in its first impression, with quite a bit of intensity lurking in the background. Today, the Molsino is not as expressive as the Valferana, but its day will come. With a bit of aeration, the 2014 starts to show the structure, layers of nuance and resonance that will emerge more fully in time.

Roberto Conterno tells me he prefers the 2014 Gattinara Vigna Molsino over his other single-vineyard expression from the Vigna Valferana. I tend to agree given this wine's large span of beautiful aromas. This is a deep and expressive Nebbiolo that starts with plump fruit tones and ends with drying mineral nuances. There is a touch of white pepper too. Bring this one out for pheasant or other game bird roast.
This starts out spicy and savory, with a core of cherry, strawberry, licorice and stone flavors. Consistent from beginning to end, with leather and tobacco accents on the aftertaste. Best from 2020 through 2033. 1,166 cases made.
100% Nebbiolo aged for 40 months in large oak casks. Mid ruby with broad orange rim. A bit like Antoniolo's Osso San Grato 2014 just tasted, with concentrated, spicy cherry fruit and a little perfumed. Sweet cherry fruit and plenty of acidity, supple and with minerally salty notes on the finish. Will probably gain in complexity with a little more age. (WS)
