Arpepe Rosso di Valtellina (2020)

Arpepe Rosso di Valtellina (2020) The Rosso di Valtellina has a free and light-hearted personality. As always a wine that over delivers in every way. From vines more than fifty years old planted over granite, fruit is sourced from the lower parts of their parcels across the various crus at around 350-400 metres above sea level. The grapes undergo a long, gentle maceration with the skins in tini, before being pressed off to big old chestnut casks. This is a perfect introduction to the kind of lithe, perfumed Nebbiolo they do so well.
