In the heart of the Gattinara hills, the Travaglini winery, a family-run business that dates back to the 1920s, owns 59 hectares, 44 of which are harvested to produce most notably one of Piemonte’s more undervalued wines internationally, Gattinara DOCG, made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes. Today the family business continues to perfect the expression of Gattinara DOCG, unique because of the distinctive terroir of Northern Piemonte. With a rocky subsoil similar to that found in the Alps, this hilly landscape with its rich iron deposits and an ideal microclimate is perfect for growing Nebbiolo grapes, yielding wines that can rival a Barolo or a Barbaresco. The distinctive bottle designed by the Travaglini family dates back to the 1950s, its shape intended to catch the sediment during pouring, allowing the wine to be served directly from bottle to the glass without the need for a decanter.
