Sfursat is a Nebbiolo from Valtellina, crafted through the natural drying of grapes, enhanced by the fresh, dry Alpine winds. This unique wine combines the richness and austerity of Nebbiolo with the mineral freshness typical of mountain wines. It features a medium ruby color and an intense bouquet of ripe red fruits and spices like pepper and cinnamon. On the palate, Sfursat offers a dry taste with notes of black fruit, prominent tannins, and a persistent finish with hints of cloves and licorice. Ideal for pairing with roasted red meats, game, and aged cheeses.

Details product

Sfursat is derived from a natural drying of the grapes, favored by the chill and dry winds coming from the mountains. The wine is thus a unique Nebbiolo: rich and austere, with the typical mineral and fresh characters of the alpine wines.

The vineyards of the Valtellina DOC and DOCG zones, on the slopes of the Rhaetian Alps, along the right bank of the River Adda. South facing, at altitudes between 300 and 550 metres above sea level. Shallow, sandy loam with low fertility, contained by dry-stone wall terraces.

The grapes were entirely handpicked from the end of September onwards and placed in cases weighing no more than 4.5 kg each. The grapes were left to dry in the “fruttaio”, the fruit shed, where they loose almost 30% of their weight. Between December and the beginning of January they were fermented at a controlled temperature with prolonged maceration (15-20 days).

Contains sulphites.

Medium-ruby hue, accompanied by a concentrated, complex nose with notes of ripe berry fruit and spice (black pepper and cinnamon). At the palate, it’s dry, with ripe dark fruit notes, firm austere tannins. Full-bodied, persistent, long finish with notes of cloves and liquorice.
Si consiglia con: roast red meats, game, mature cheeses (particularly the local Bitto).
