'5 Star Sfursat' Sforzato della Valtellina DOCG Nino Negri 2020

The fine Sforzato della Valtellina 5 Star red wine from the Nino Negri winery is obtained using exclusively Nebbiolo grapes, locally known as Chiavennasca, of the best quality and harvested only in the best vintages. This winery, which boasts a very long experience, operates successfully in the Valtellina area, perfectly combining craftsmanship and technological innovation. The rough, steep and inhospitable soils of the mountains found in the heart of Valtellina provide, also thanks to the suitable climatic conditions, excellent grapes. To obtain this superior quality wine, the production process is very complex. After the harvest, the grapes are left to dry naturally for a long time in order to increase the sugar concentration. We then move on to fermentation on the skins, in steel tanks and maturation in French Allier barriques. The result is a full-bodied, robust, elegant wine with a harmonious and balanced structure which is also characterized by a delicate fruity and aromatic aftertaste. An important wine, a wine for great occasions for sumptuous combinations of meat.
