Marco Ferrari, Rosso di Valtellina DOC (2024) – Lombardia

Mountain Nebbiolo for people who think Nebbiolo has to be serious. It doesn't.

THE GRAPE
100% Chiavennasca, Valtellina's name for Nebbiolo, from about 1.6–2 hectares of assorted parcels, mostly in the Inferno and Sassella crus. The vines average over 60 years old.

THE WINE
This is Ferrari's younger-drinking red, made from the same old vines as his cru wines. It ferments on the skins for two weeks or more, then rests seven to eight months in old wood, so it stays bright, red-fruited and lightly tannic. Alpine and fresh, with a little spice and stone. Pour it slightly cool.

FOOD PAIRING
Pizzoccheri, salumi, roast chicken, grilled sausages, mushroom pasta.
