Antoniolo, Gattinara, San Francesco 2007
95 Antonio Galloni, Vinous
The 2007 Gattinara San Francesco shows marvelous focus and length. It is an understated wine laced with floral overtones and simply exquisite finesse. Freshly cut roses, red cherries, minerals and mint are some of the nuances that fill out the beautiful, textured frame. All of the elements continue to gain in harmony and finesse through to the finish. This is the finest San Francesco I have ever tasted. Oct. 2011

Decanted at 2pm and tasted from 6-10pm. This is a brilliant ruby garnet color with no real sign of age. Nose is fragrant with red fruit and florals. Tart acidity especially early on but more mellow with 5-8 hours of air. Shows red fruits like tart cherry, cranberry, raspberry and pomegranate. Good mineral undertone. Long finish. Needs food to show best. Great with a duck confit and mushroom pasta. Needs the air to come into its own! Should last a long time in the cellar. Very beautiful and elegant. 1/16/2023
