Gillardi
Gillardi operates in Langhe, the heart of Piemonte's wine country in northern Italy. The winery draws from a region celebrated for its nebbiolo-driven reds and the lighter, food-friendly wines of the surrounding valleys. Gillardi's Langhe Nebbiolo expresses the grape's signature structure and complexity—the variety that defines this corner of Italy. The Maestra Dogliani showcases dolcetto, nebbiolo's more approachable counterpart, prized for its elegance and drinkability. The portfolio also includes Il Merlo, rounding out a range rooted in Piemontese tradition. Wine Spectator and Decanter have both assessed the winery's output, with the Langhe Nebbiolo and Maestra Dogliani earning particular recognition among prestige critics.
