'Vigna Ca' Guicciardi' Inferno Valtellina Superiore DOCG Nino Negri 2019

Vigna Ca' Guicciardi Inferno Valtellina Superiore DOCG is a red wine with intense spicy aromas, produced by the Lombard winery Nino Negri . It is obtained from the exclusive vinification of Chiavennasca grapes, or the local variety of Nebbiolo. Thanks to the quartz contained in the rocks of the vineyard, this area of the valley is very bright and warmer than the surrounding context, that's the name... This allows the grapes to develop optimally and to reach full maturity. When this happens, generally around mid-October, the harvest involves meticulous manual selection. Upon arrival in the cellar, the grapes are de-stemmed, pressed and left to ferment spontaneously. The wine ages for about a year in large wooden barrels and another six months in glass after bottling. Vigna Ca' Guicciardi Inferno Valtellina Superiore DOCG can be appreciated immediately, as well as following a further rest of 5-6 years.
