Natalie's Score: 87/100

Lovely nose of rose petals, cinnamon and spice on this elegant 100% Nebbiolo with bright red cherry, dried tobacco leaf and savoury spice flavours savoury on the palate. Tannins are structured and chewy. Good now, but butter in a year or two. Pair with prime ribs.

Gattinara food pairings: beef, mushroom risotto, gorgonzola, grilled Portobello mushrooms.

Delightful Duck Wine

Reviews and Ratings

From the Piedmont wine region, Travaglini 2016 is made from 100% Nebbiolo, medium-bodied and silky with pink florals, ripe cherry, red plum, nutmeg and savoury herb flavours supple on the palate. Very enjoyable now. Pair with roast Cornish game hens. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
