The wine region of Valtellina
Alpine Lombardy valley along the Adda, narrow steep south-facing terraces — 'heroic viticulture'. Nebbiolo signature red king (locally Chiavennasca, min. 90%): elegant, airy with cherry, raspberry, dried rose, undergrowth, tar, alpine herbs and spice notes, fine tannins and high acidity — mountain version of the great Piedmontese. Five Superiore crus: Sassella, Grumello, Inferno, Valgella, Maroggia.
The wine region of Lombardia
Three poles. Franciacorta DOCG, Italy's answer to Champagne: elegant brioche traditional-method sparklers (Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc), fine bubble and mineral profile. Alpine Valtellina: Nebbiolo (alias Chiavennasca) with fine tannins and red fruits, powerful Sforzato passito. Oltrepò Pavese: fresh Pinot Noir and fruity-sparkling Bonarda.
The word of the wine: Botrytis cinerea
This fungus, also called noble rot, develops during the over-ripening phase and is an ally of great sweet white wines, when it concentrates the juice of the berries. It requires the humidity of morning fogs and beautiful sunny days, gives musts very rich in sugar and brings to the wines the famous taste of "roasted".
