Vigna Sassorosso Valtellina Superiore Grumello DOCG 2019


Additional Information

The distinctive character of the parent rock comes across strongly in the wine beginning with its bright ruby red colour of great transparency tending towards garnet. On the nose reminiscent of small red fruit such as blackberry, currant, cherry and raspberry with fresh, floral notes of violet and rose and a finish of wild berries. A dense and silky tannic structure on the palate with a flavoursome beginning and long-lasting finish. A wine of great austerity and purity with considerable potential for ageing.
