The renowned Nino Negri winery presents us with its excellent Castel Chiuro Valtellina Superiore DOCG, an oenological gem that captures the essence of Valtellina. This wine is produced exclusively from Nebbiolo grapes, locally known as Chiavennasca, cultivated in the terraced vineyards that characterize the picturesque mountainous region.

In the glass, Castel Chiuro presents a deep and bright ruby red color, promising an intense and complex olfactory experience. On the nose, notes of ripe red fruit, plum, and spicy hints of vanilla and black pepper emerge, enriched by a slight trace of tobacco and leather, a result of aging in barriques.

On the palate, the wine is robust but harmonious; the tannins are well-structured and perfectly balanced with a persistent freshness and a minerality reminiscent of the land from which the grapes were harvested. The finish is long and memorable, with echoes of wild berries and a slight balsamic aftertaste.

An ideal accompaniment for red meat dishes, game, or aged cheeses, the Castel Chiuro Valtellina Superiore DOCG by Nino Negri is a wine that celebrates the high-altitude winemaking tradition and the qualitative dedication of one of the most respected wineries in Lombardia. A must for Italian wine enthusiasts seeking a unique and authentically terroir-driven sensory experience.
