2019 Cantina Delsignore Gattinara Riserva 'Borgofranco' (PRE-ARRIVAL ONLY)
Pre-arrival price only, wine will be $139 when landed.
VERY LIMITED – Just 60 bottles for Australia. So a 6 bottle limit sorry.
The flagship from Delsignore & from the superb 2019 vintage.
Stefano’s Riserva is from his best parcels & generally oldest vines. Only released in exceptional vintages.
This is an exceptional release from Stefano & a very ageworthy one at that.
94 Points, Gary Walsh (TWF) – “Red cherry, raspberry, potpourri, liquorice, alpine herbs. It’s medium-bodied, kind of steely and tight, a little rosehip and herbal tea, plenty of cherry and spice, a little sappy, some orange peel, with a fine dusty grip to tannin, closing with excellent length. It has a juiciness to it, but also has something of a walnutty riserva character too. Distinctive.”
95 Points, James Suckling – “Blood oranges, dried roses, raspberries and rhubarb. Soft and elegant tannins with a velvety texture, crisp acidity and a full body. The finish is chewy yet balanced and dynamic.”
