The Ar Pepe Sassella, a remarkable Nebbiolo from the stunning Valtellina region, captivates the senses with its vibrant red hue. This 2018 vintage showcases a medium-bodied profile that exudes elegance and finesse, making it an absolute delight for wine enthusiasts. With pronounced acidity, it delivers a bright and refreshing quality, perfectly balancing the wine’s expressive fruit intensity, characterized by notes of red cherry and dried rose petals. Tannins are notable and provide structure without overwhelming the palate, allowing for a silky-smooth mouthfeel. This delightful expression of Nebbiolo is bone dry, making it exceptionally food-friendly. It invites you to explore its complexity while enjoying the beautiful terroir of Valtellina.
