Sforzato di Valtellina

Unsatisfied with their first Sforzato attempt, the Dirupi duo referred to the wine as ‘sbagliato’, or mistaken. Subsequent efforts have been much more successful but they have kept the original nickname - drawing a line through sbagliato to emphasize that they are now on the right track! The nose is redolent of baked black currants, sundried tomato and chocolate. Accents of vanilla, tobacco and rosemary weave through the palate, which is full, firm and brawny. Those dry, compact tannins and palpable wood notes need time to integrate.
