Dirupi Valtellina Superiore DOCG (2022) - Lombardia, Valtellina
£48.00
THE GRAPE
100% Chiavennasca (Nebbiolo) from heroic terraced vineyards across Valtellina's subzones—high slopes of sandy-gravel and rocky soils, where alpine winds sculpt pure mountain fruit.
THE WINE
Bright ruby elixir of wild cherries, alpine herbs, rosehip, and dusty stone. Juicy, vibrant palate dances with fine tannins, cool-climate acidity, and whispering minerality—elegant power at 13.5% ABV, ready now or cellar-worthy.
FOOD PAIRING
Grilled sausages, polenta with wild mushrooms, Valtellina bresaola—rustic alpine feasts that sing.
THE WINEMAKER
Davide "Faso" and Pierpaolo "Birba"—childhood comrades turned terrace warriors. Since 2004 in Sondrio, they've resurrected ancient sites organically, bottling Valtellina's wild, soaring heartbeat.
