VALTELLINA SUPERIORE VALGELLA RISERVA D.O.C.G
“This is a project strongly intended to recall the beginning of my winemaking adventure.
That’s why it bears my name. A Riserva in Valgella in the area where it all began,
an important wine for my journey, with an exclusive label
whose description is contained in the poem.”
La Donna Sorso ha sete di Bellezza e Garbo.
Ama la sensazione di libertà
che il vigneto le restituisce,
le foglie rosse e viola che profumano d’uva.
Ama il suono sottile del vento
che canta tra le viti,
rincorre l’incantesimo dell’acino
tra parole e sorrisi
che scivolano come vino nel bicchiere.
Bright garnet red at sight. Intense on the nose where the initial ferrous mineral notes are followed by articulated scents of spices, red fruits in spirit, savory oranges and coffee. In the mouth fine, elegant and bright. It fits perfectly with red and white meats, feathered game in sauce, hard and mature cheese, oily fish.
Sandy loam soil with a good percentage of silt, medium in depth and permeable to water.
Harvested rigorously by hand. The pressing is done immediately after the harvest, followed by a classical natural red vinification and maceration on the skins for about 30 days.
Aging in barrels followed by refinement in bottle and darkness.
