Only made in the best vintages, the 2013 Valtellina Superiore Sassella Riserva is a beautifully elegant expression of Chiavennasca (or Nebbiolo) that shines bright from deep inside. The wine glides over the palate with a silky, glossy approach. It reveals delicate aromas of white cherry, dried cranberry and wild rose. The tannins and the acidity are both seamlessly integrated within the wine's mid-weight texture
