The 2020 Vigna Molsino appears with a deep garnet edge and a vividly perfumed nose of wild cherry, black plum, violet petal and a fine‑grained thread of iron‑rich minerality. On the palate it is full‑bodied yet sculpted, delivering a dense core of dark fruit interlaced with licorice, crushed stone and tobacco leaf, framed by firm tannins and crisp acidity that lift the wine’s architecture. Mid‑palate complexity reveals cedar chest, graphite and underbrush, while the 3L format enhances the sense of layering and energy. The finish is long and persistent—saline minerality, cherry pit and dry herbs linger elegantly. Approachable today with decanting, this magnum is clearly built for decades of evolution in a well‑conditioned cellar. 

Nervi‑Conterno represents a compelling fusion of legacy and innovation in Piedmont’s Alto Piemonte region. Originally the historic Nervi estate, the winery was revitalized under the stewardship of Roberto Conterno (of the famed Conterno family) and now stands as a benchmark for refined Nebbiolo from the volcanic slopes of Gattinara. The estate’s vineyards include the highly regarded „Vigna Molsino” cru, planted on deep porphyry soils at around 400 m elevation and farmed with the utmost care—ultra‑low yields, careful sorting, long maceration and extended ageing in large oak barrels. The result is a wine built for longevity, minerality and site‑expression, yet with a clarity and finesse that define the modern era of Gattinara.
