Altellina is the best part of 2 hrs due north of Franciacorta, tucked up close to the Swiss border. It’s Italy’s only East - West valley, Tirano and Sondrio are the two most important towns. Apart from wine, the area has exceptional walking and mountain biking trails… you road bikers can spin a little further down the road to the foot of the Stelvio.
100% Nebbiolo from vineyards in Tresivio. Fermented and aged in stainless steel for 7 months.
Ascesa Rosso di Valtellina is beautifully pure… lots of flavour, lovely secondary notes, bright, lively and energetic with just 12.5 abv.
Great with Beef carpaccio and capers.
Please note: All case wine orders can take between 7-10 days for delivery.
