From our sommeliers
The Valtellina Superiore Sassella by Triacca is born in the sunny and ventilated area of Sassella, on tiny rocky plots in the municipality of Sondrio. It is this terroir that creates a unique profile for the wine. The maceration on the skins and aging in oak barrels enhance the complexity of this mountain Nebbiolo: raspberry, violet, and dog rose on the nose, with more evolved hints of spices. On the palate, it is dry, robust, and tannic, with fresh and balsamic elements. Ideal with a braised dish in red wine or feathered game
Colour:
Ruby red with garnet reflections
Scent:
Characteristic and inviting, with fruity notes of raspberry, floral nuances of violet and dog rose, and a toasted hint of coffee
Taste:
Dry, austere, and robust, with well-present tannins and full structure
