Description
The Rosso di Valtellina is made from predominantly Nebbiolo (known locally as Chievennasca), and tiny amounts of the local grapes of Pignola, Rossola and Brugnola grown in the high altitude vineyards of Valtellina. This is a delightful red which is relatively pale in the glass with bright ruby tints. The nose is fresh and floral with notes of violets and rose. Mid-weight and pretty on the palate yet with a little bit of Nebbiolo power lingering in the background. This delicious red is stainless steel fermented and destined for enjoying whilst young.
