The Valtellina Superiore wine

Among the wine production in Italy there are some geographical areas more suitable and loved by the passionate and one of those is the Valtellina Superiore.

This part of Lombardy is since millennium suited to produce the best wines such as the Valtellina Superiore. This love has very ancient origins as for example the quotes of the Virgilio and Pliny and the several witnesses of the Sant’Ambrogio Monastery which was territory for the cultivation.

In the past years the wine cultivation was the main source of income of the inhabitants and especially during the Romans who created terraces that today are a national Unesco heritage. This land is extended for 40 km along the Adda river with around 10000 hectares because particularly sunny and less humid.

A very high quality for a unique production

The Valtellina Superiore is the favorite of the Lombardy wines product and it has a ruby red color and if aged it becomes garnet. A fruity aroma and a harmonic, velvety and dry taste are the main characteristics.

It exists five typologies of Valtellina Superiore: The Inferno with a decider character and a vanilla aroma, The Grumello made with Brugnola vineyards, the Sassella, delicate with licorice aromas, the Valgella soft and young and the Maroggia with decided and strong characteristics.

The cultivation soils are located at 300-500 meters above the sea level on mineral, sandy and marl soils perfect to produce very high-quality wines.

The maceration is slow and under temperature control with several pumping over and then the wine is put in stainless steel tanks to ferment and it follows 20 months of maturation is barrels and 9 in bottle.
