| Taste | Notes of citrus, freshness and light light silk... a cello concert and the white noise of the distant glacier. |
| History | When the high autumn temperatures begin to shape the aromatic profile of the grapes, the skin thickens and the mineral salts concentrate. The right acidity is needed to create the Valtellina Superiore Grumello Riserva Buon Consiglio DOCG. Long macerations, if necessary even more than 100 days in the wooden vat, large barrels for even 60 months and still for the right amount of time waiting, in silence, in the dark, in the burgundy bottle. You are amazed when you drink it at the end of summer, in the evening, and you are reminded of seaside holidays. |
