Rosso di Valtellina 2017 Ar.Pe.Pe.
Rosso di Valtellina di Ar.Pe.Pe. is a red wine obtained from Nebbiolo grapes (in this area called Chiavennasca), which in its simplicity and readiness to drink represents the red wines of Valtellina, dynamic in matching and ready to drink in all occasions. The type of viticulture in this case is called "heroic", because the grapes come from vineyards in Montagna in Valtellina, where management is decidedly impassable. Aging takes place for 6 months in large oak barrels before marketing. The Rosso di Valtellina di Ar.Pe.Pe. shows a typical garnet colour and gives a refined bouquet of flowers and berries, while the palate is balanced, quite structured and persistent, with tannins present but silky.
