The wine region of Terrazze Retiche di Sondrio
IGT of Valtellina (Alpine Lombardy, renamed Alpi Retiche in 2017), heroic vineyards on terraces on the steep slopes of the Rhaetian Alps. Chiavennasca signature red king (local name for Nebbiolo, >=85%): aerial and taut with red cherry, raspberry, faded rose, undergrowth, alpine spices and mineral touch, fine tannins and high acidity — softer alternative to Valtellina Superiore DOCG. Pignola and Rossola indigenous as complement. Alpine Nebbiolo.
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: Véraison
A phase in the vegetative cycle of the vine that takes place in summer, usually in August, when the grapes change colour from green to red (for reds) or yellow (for whites). This stage heralds the beginning of ripening.
