Description

Valtellina Superiore DOCG Sassella Cru “PG40” 2021 - A Symphony of Elegance

This wine is a refined expression of 100% Nebbiolo (locally known as Chiavennasca), sourced from historic vineyards surrounding the winery, just a stone's throw from the church of Madonna della Sassella.

These vineyards boast a southwest exposure and are gracefully situated at altitudes of 300 to 420 meters above sea level. The unique vinification process begins by allowing the grapes to gently dry for a few days, followed by a long maceration with the grape skins in stainless steel tanks. The wine then matures for 24/26 months in 10 HL oak barrels.

Bottled in May 2025.

Despite the stony terrain of the vineyard, Sassella yields a wine that exudes a remarkable pleasant and elegant aroma, characterized by notes of small red fruits and mountain plums, complemented by aromas from tertiary aging.

Best enjoyed at 18°C.
