TASTING NOTES

Rosso di Valtellina is the Nebbiolo that most represents the freshness and pleasantness offered by mountain wines. Nino Negri’s centuries-old experience has made it possible to select vineyards suitable for ripening grapes capable of producing soft tannins while maintaining a never too high alcohol potential. The Nebbiolo chosen for this wine is characterized by rather large berries, but especially with very thick and resistant skins, suitable for a whole berry fermentation. Giùen Rosso di Valtellina is made of 100% Nebbiolo (Chiavennasca) grapes, which rest on vineyards in the Valtellina DOC area, located in the foothills of the Valtellina Alps with a sandy-sandy soil, shallow and of low fertility. The grapes that arrive in the cellar are destemmed but not crushed and transferred gently into fermentation tanks. The must obtained during these stages is fermented. The carbon dioxide produced immediately saturates the container and causes a natural enzymatic fermentation within the whole berries. This gives rise to very intense fruity aromas. When the whole berries are unsweetened after about a week, they release their rich content of aromas and sugar. The fermentation ends slowly at low temperature without further contact with the skins. The wine is aged for at least six months in a cellar, partly in wood and partly in steel. The glass is ruby red in colour, with an intense fruity and vinous aroma with a fine fragrance of small berries and cherries. Sweet spices with delicate notes of violet, the palate reveals a soft taste with tasty tannins, fruity aftertaste and long finish, savory and mineral. Ideal in combination with appetizers, first courses and not too tasty meats. To fully appreciate the style, Giùen Rosso di Valtellina must be served at a serving temperature of 15/16°C.

THE WINERY

Nino Negri

Of all the wine cellars in Lombardy, perhaps Nino Negri's is one of those that has succeeded best in combining traditional techniques with the most complex and avant-garde innovations. Between French and American oak barriques, the oldest traditions of the Valtellina region, where the winery and its vineyards have been in operation for more than a century, still find their place. After careful renovation work aimed at striking a balance between old and new, the company has created a production of high-quality grappas and Lombardy wines with a strong character and rich history. Its territory lies on the slopes of the Valtellina mountains, in an area sheltered from the north wind and exposed to the sun. The area's microclimate is exploited to the full during cultivation, in order to be able to count on excellent grapes that give the final product a class and finesse that is typical of Lombardy. Name and address of producer/distributor: Nino Negri - Via Ghibellini, 3, 23030 Chiuro (SO). Products from this winery should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
