Valtellina Superiore Riserva Grumello Buon Consiglio 2016, ARPEPE
The Valtellina Superiore Riserva "Buon Consiglio" 2016 by ARPEPE is a monumental work, the purest and most vertical expression of mountain Nebbiolo (Chiavennasca). Born from the vineyards of the Grumello cru, characterized by granitic rocks and steep slopes, this wine rests for years in large chestnut and oak barrels before reaching extraordinary architectural complexity. The 2016 vintage was exceptionally balanced in Valtellina, granting the Buon Consiglio a silky texture and unparalleled balsamic freshness. On the nose, it is a symphony of rare elegance: clear notes of dog rose, small red forest fruits, and medicinal herbs blend with deep aromas of licorice root, incense, blond tobacco, and a mineral trail reminiscent of flint and volcanic rock. On the palate, it is lively, architectural, and sumptuous;The entry is straight, dominated by a noble and smooth tannin, with an aristocratic sapidity that extends the sip towards an endless, vibrant, and crystalline finish.
