Description
This terrific red comes from Nebbiolo grapes grown in the Valtellina Superiore area in the districts of Berbenno, Sondrio, Montagna e Teglio, between 350 and 500 metres above sea level. The best quality grapes are dried for 2 months in the “fruttaio”, a ventilated area on the top floor of the CasaClima Wine cellar.
The wine displays a beautiful dark garnet-red colour alongside orange overtones. Pronounced varietal aromas abound on the nose with polished spicy edges of vanilla and hints of dried fruit and flowers. It has warm, dry and persistent flavours with silky textured, lingering fruit on the palate. Powerful yet with great delicacy, the warming fruits carry through to a finely balanced finish with beautiful freshness.
This is a fabulous wine to try if you like Amarone/Passimiento styles.

2020 Cabernet Franc Seleccion, Bodegas Rio Del Elorza, Mendoza
Cabernet Franc
The Verum Cabernet Franc Seleccion, Bodegas Rio Del Elorza has classic elements on the nose including wild strawberry, blackberry, pencil shavings and a hint of blackcurrant leaf. Lovely ripe fruits with a hint of stalky/vegetal character but not too much greenness, instead offering more body and depth of fruit and a slight touch of herbal mint. The full-bodied palate is elegant with firm tannins but a vital balancing acidity. Cedar notes show from the use of French oak and the finish is dominated by bright red fruit and mocha spice.
