Gattinara By Master Chef Gianluca Deiana Abis 1. History Gattinara DOCG is one of Piedmont’s most historic appellations, and its roots in Nebbiolo winemaking go back centuries.

The area’s volcanic soils, combined with its cooler climate and Alpine influence, contribute to wines of remarkable minerality, bright acidity, and longevity. G
