The natural concentration technique enhances a structure of formidable body and warmth. The glass reveals complex aromas of spirit-soaked plums and small red fruits, intertwined with deep notes of alpine herbs, mint, liquorice and cocoa.

The rows are trained using the Guyot system at an altitude between 350 and 550 metres. The soil is characterised by a \u003cstrong\u003esandy composition\u003c\/strong\u003e and silt without limestone, resting on a base of \u003cstrong\u003edisintegrated granite rock\u003c\/strong\u003e with rare traces of clay. These particular pedoclimatic conditions give the Nebbiolo its \u003cstrong\u003enatural aromatic finesse\u003c\/strong\u003e and a mark of deep elegance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe creation of this red requires meticulous selection in the vineyard during the harvest. The best bunches undergo a long \u003cstrong\u003edrying process in the fruit loft\u003c\/strong\u003e for about one hundred days, resting in the open air until mid-January to develop maximum structural complexity. The next stage involves fermentation and a twenty-six day maceration directly in \u003cstrong\u003ewooden barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e. The material profile is finally refined by \u003cstrong\u003ematuration in wood\u003c\/strong\u003e for twenty months and a subsequent rest in the bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eAlbareda Sforzato di Valtellina DOCG\u003c\/strong\u003e by Mamete Prevostini is born from the meticulous drying of Nebbiolo grapes, left to concentrate naturally in the open air for one hundred days.
