This Valtellina Superiore Grumello Riserva 2016, made from Nebbiolo (Chiavennasca), offers a captivating aromatic profile of red cherry, dried raspberry, rose petals, and hints of licorice, tar, and forest floor. With further age, tertiary notes of leather, tobacco, and dried savory herbs emerge. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with vibrant acidity and firm, yet elegant, tannins. Flavors mirror the nose, complemented by earthy minerality and a long, persistent, dry finish.
