Cantina Sociale di Gattinara is a historic winemaking cooperative founded in 1908 in the Alto Piemonte region of Northern Italy. The cooperative unites roughly 40 local farming families who meticulously tend to small, fragmented vineyard plots characterized by unique, mineral-rich volcanic soils. By pooling their heritage and passion, they craft exceptional, traditionally styled expressions of the Nebbiolo grape (locally called Spanna). Their long-standing dedication ensures the preservation of regional viticulture while consistently delivering world-class, ageworthy wines like their signature Gattinara Riserva.
