Medium-intensity ruby in color, this wine has an aromatic, medium-plus-intensity nose of red cherry, red raspberry, black tea, blossom and forest floor.
On the palate the dry, medium-plus-bodied Rosso di Valtellina has medium-plus-intensity flavors suggested on the nose supported by medium-plus acidity and medium tannin ultimately completing with a long, floral finish.
The wine is complex with an underlying energy and precision and is an expressive, impressive Nebbiolo.
