Colombera & Garella Cascina Cottionano Bramaterra Nebbiolo Blend 2016
The Bramaterra area is dominated by volcanic friable rocks with a quite a bit of iron in the soil. The inclusion of 10% each Croatina and Vespolina give the wine a deeper expression Nebbiolo alone, with darker fruit and more texture than their Lessona. This is a lush and textured for Nebbiolo but with very moderate alcohol and focused acidity. Delicious young these bottles have serious potential in the cellar over the course of a decade.

The 2016 Bramaterra Cascina Cottignano is bold, ample and super-expressive, although it is going to need at least a few years in bottle to be at its best. Even today, though, the wine's depth and overall resonance are both apparent. Dark red cherry, plum, spice, rose petal and earthy notes all flesh out in this potent, exotically rich Bramaterra. The 2016 is flat-out gorgeous, that's pretty much all there is to it. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, April 2020)

Rich mefium Ruby color and a perfect balance of black fruit, tar and earthy violet. This is a lovely, elegant red that is light enough to go with fish and flavorful enough to stand up to a spicy ragu. Total win

Beautiful Nebbiolo-based blend. Dark cherry, strawberry, and earthy notes. Precise and structured with good acidity, almost like a red Burgundy. Can't get enough of this wine! Purchased at Popina in Brooklyn, NY.
