Tasting Notes
Piero Gatti Vignot is a delightful passito wine crafted from Moscato grapes that are left to dry on the vine until late October, enhancing their sweetness and complexity. The wine is exclusively stored in steel tanks to preserve its fresh and aromatic profile.
On the palate, it strikes a balance between the light effervescence of Moscato d'Asti and the richness of a traditional passito, offering sweetness complemented by good acidity. Some tasters find it slightly simple but appreciate its persistence. - Aaron C
Arguably Italy’s most important fine wine region, Piedmont is synonymous with Nebbiolo, Barolo, and Barbaresco. It’s also home to a wide array of other compelling reds and whites that range from the austere to the juicy and joyful.
LOCATION:
Northwest Italy, bordering France and Switzerland, with the Alps to the north and the Apennines to the south.
TERROIR:
Rolling hills and foggy mornings define Langhe and Roero. Soils are mostly calcareous marl with sandy or clay-rich layers depending on the site. Continental climate with cold winters and warm summers.
VARIETIES:
Nebbiolo is king, producing powerful, tannic reds. Barbera and Dolcetto round out the red trio. For whites, look to Arneis, Cortese (Gavi), and Timorasso. Moscato is important in the Asti area.
