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: Vent (taste of)
A defect that characterizes a wine exposed to the air, and which has lost its aromatic qualities.
