Valtellina Superiore Il Pettirosso, ARPEPE 2023

Red Wine from Italy - Lombardy
0 star rating 0 Reviews
This Valtellina Superiore epitomises the elegant mountain expression of nebbiolo from vineyards at 400-550-metres altitude. Fermented traditionally and aged in large neutral oak, there is an expressive perfume of red apple and grapefruit peel, with fine-but-firm tannins supporting cherry, bitter orange and subtle spices. A floral, lifted finish and overall vertical mouthfeel, reflects the steep, sun-kissed, night-cooled slopes of Valtellina.

This Nebbiolo from cult winery Arpepe in Lombardy is a real treat. Grippy, zippy and vertical, with hunger-inducing sapidity, at its core are some soft, bright cherry and red berry fruits, with some underlying deeper notes of blackberry. A class act.
