Savor the Essence of Alpine Nebbiolo: ArPePe 2015 Valtellina Superiore Sassella Stella Retica
Experience the pinnacle of mountain viticulture with this exquisite 2015 Nebbiolo from ArPePe, crafted in Lombardy’s prestigious Valtellina region. Hailing from the revered Sassella cru – celebrated for its steep, sun-drenched slopes overlooking the Adda River – Stella Retica embodies the pure expression of high-altitude Nebbiolo.
Critically acclaimed with 94 Points from Wine Advocate, this perfectly matured red wine unfolds gracefully. Anticipate captivating layers of wild forest berries, dark cassis, subtle woodsmoke, and distinctive mineral undertones reminiscent of Alpine terroir. Its texture is a revelation: remarkably polished and gentle on the palate, showcasing the seamless integration achieved through careful aging. Now at its peak drinking window, this beautifully softened vintage offers immediate pleasure.
Enjoy Stella Retica as the ultimate companion to rich Alpine cheeses or sophisticated meat dishes. It represents an exceptional opportunity to own a piece of Italian winemaking heritage – a hand-harvested, terroir-driven Nebbiolo reflecting the unique character of the Rhaetian Alps.
