Description
History
Nicola Gatta is a producer located in the eastern area of Franciacorta, with vineyards situated at 400 meters above sea level on the hills of Gussago. He adopts biodynamic practices in the vineyard, avoiding the use of herbicides and synthetic chemicals, and employs spontaneous fermentations with indigenous yeasts in the cellar. His philosophy is to enhance the territory through wines that represent it without compromise.
