Nino Negri, 2019In the amphitheater of the steep terraced slopes facing the majestic Alps in the Lombardia region, the Nino Negri family have been making concentrated, yet elegant wines from Nebbiolo for over 125 years. The grapes, here called Chiavennasca, receive intense sunlight and the 'Breva' wind sweeps the Adda Valley from Lake Como, allowing for full ripening and fresh fruit in these thousand year-old stone terraces. Hand harvested with scrupulous care, the grapes are dried through the autumn and winter, pressed, and then aged in French oak barrels. This process reveals one of the most singular and unique expressions of Nebbiolo in the world. As one of Italy's most decorated estates, Nino Negri's benchmark Sforzato di Valtellina is recognized around the world for its high quality, power, and finesse180
