Casa Vinicola Nera SASSELLA DOCG Valtellina Lombardia
Description: Valtellina’s steep, terraced vineyards along the Adda valley are some of the most dramatic in Italy. Nebbiolo is the main grape variety, although it is known locally as Chiavennasca. In good vintages, the delicate floral aromas produced by sub-Alpine Nebbiolo are backed up by good fruit concentration. Nera are amongst the area’s most serious producers with 48ha of prime vineyards. Winemaker Stefano Nera produces the elegant wines Sassella as well as Inferno and both have real complexity and intensity. This wine is a blend of Nebbiolo and a little of the local grape varieties Pignola, Brugnola e Rossola. Red ruby in colour with a vinous bouquet, dry, warm, consistent and fine, this wine has lots of character. (12 x 75 cl) Price: £168.34

Description: Sassella is the second, in size, of the four sub-zones of the DOCG Valtellina Superiore: about 150 hectares, from Castione Andevenno to the gates of Sondrio.

The ripe grapes, harvested between the middle of October and early November, are vinified by the traditional red wine method, with ten days maceration of the skins in the must; the fermentation takes place at 28-30°C. The new wine stays in stainless steel tanks until March; then matures for 12 months in Slavonian oak vats and it rests in bottle for at least three months. Ruby red colour with garnet hues and an intense, elegant bouquet with hints of raspberry preserve, resin and tar with suggestions of dried flowers and of cloves. A dry, firm, balanced flavour with a distinctive, lingering aftertaste of prunes and toasted almonds make this a wine to savour. (6 x 75 cl) Price: £111.32
