Description:

A deep ruby ​​color with garnet highlights, it offers complex aromas of fruit preserved in alcohol, black pepper, licorice, dried plum, and sweet tobacco. On the palate, it is full-bodied and warm, with ripe tannins and a mineral edge that sustains the length of the sip. It pairs perfectly with pizzoccheri Valtellinesi, bresaola PGI, stewed red meats, and aged mountain cheeses.

The Boffalora winery is located in the heart of Valtellina and processes exclusively Nebbiolo grapes from heroic, south-facing terraces at over 400 meters above sea level. The grapes dry naturally in a drying room for approximately 60 days. The wine is then aged in French oak barriques for 12 months, followed by bottle aging.
