Definitely Valtellina. Big producer in the area, so I had lower expectations... but the wine was lovely. Soft, expressive, ample acidity, sweet spices. Would buy again. SommSelect 2018.

Dec 12th, 2018A little different from its Piedmontese counterpart, but certainly bears the hallmarks of Nebbiolo. Acidity, tannic structure, and bright red fruit. This bottle has been open for 3 days now and it’s still drinking nicely. The oak was far more prominent early on, but it has faded into the background and is much more subdued now.
