An elegant, mountain-grown Red wine made from 100% Chiavennasca (the local name for Nebbiolo) in the Lombardy region of Italy. It is widely praised for its brightness, silky texture, and nuanced "alpine" character.
Aromas & Flavor: Expect a complex profile featuring fresh roses, violets, wild red currants, and cherries. Critics often note savory secondary notes like white licorice root, tobacco, leather, and black pepper.
Palate: It is light-to-medium-bodied with high, refreshing acidity and fine-grained, "silky" tannins. Unlike the heavier Nebbiolos of Barolo, this wine emphasizes elegance and minerality.
Production: The grapes come from 50–100 year old vines. The wine undergoes a long maceration (around 110 days) and is aged for 18 months in large 50HL untoasted casks followed by 24 months in the bottle.
Pairing Recommendations: The wine’s high acidity and balanced tannins make it a versatile food partner.
Meats: Traditionally paired with lamb, game (deer/venison), or steak.
Regional Cuisine: Pairs perfectly with Valtellina staples like Pizzoccheri (buckwheat pasta), polenta, or aged mountain cheeses.
