Nervi Conterno Vigna Valferana, Gattinara DOCG, Italy 2018 Black Pearl Enchanting charmThe 2018 Gattinara Valferana is explosive right out of the glass. Supporting veins of tannin carry a core of red fruit, cinnamon, rose petal, blood orange, mint and white pepper. The Valferana is complex and wonderfully deep from start to finish. Valferana is the cooler of the two single vineyard Gattinaras that are bottled separately here. The 2018 is a special wine. 96 Pts Vinous
