Rosso di Valtellina

Light

Cork

From a 1ha parcel planted in 1999, where yields are a modest 400g per vine. Sun-soaked cherries make way for earth and black tea as this wine opens up. It's slight in build, with delicate tannins but chock full of flavour, energy and crisp acidity, ending on a pleasant bitter note of orange rind. Despite being within the Valtellina Superiore zone, this is declassified to Rosso as ageing takes place in stainless steel rather than wood.
