2009 Valetellina Superiore Nebbiolo
The Aldo Rainoldi Sassella Riserva, a splendid expression of Nebbiolo from the esteemed Valtellina Superiore region, presents an enchanting deep red color that captivates the eye. This vintage showcases a full-bodied profile, supported by medium acidity that contributes to its refreshing character. The wine exudes prominent fruit intensity with notes of ripe cherries and dark berries, harmonizing beautifully with subtle hints of leather and spice that are characteristic of well-aged Nebbiolo. Its tannins are notably firm yet refined, providing structure and depth without overpowering the palate. As a dry wine, it invites exploration on the palate while offering a serious yet approachable drinking experience, making it a wonderful companion to rich dishes or a cozy evening by the fireplace.
