VALTELLINA, ITALY

A note from the winemaker: 100% Nebbiolo. A small percentage of dried grapes lend to softening tannins. Medium-ruby hue, accompanied by a concentrated, complex nose with notes of ripe berry fruit and spice (black pepper and cinnamon). At the palate, it’s dry, with ripe dark fruit notes, firm austere tannins. Full-bodied, persistent, long finish with notes of cloves and licorice.

Food Pairings: Braised short rib, gnocchi with cheese, BBQ, or grilled eggplant.
