"Sweet violets and red and dark fruit on the nose. Layered and complex profile. Very juicy with a light to medium body and dry, extracted tannins in the finish, yet fierce and still rugged. Quite a personality. Drink or hold."

"Opening to a light ruby color, the Ar. Pe. Pe. 2021 Rosso di Valtellina has notes of mountain pine, heritage rose with black slate and chalkboard that all converge with elegance. With time, it also offers blossoming fruit, dried cranberry and rose hip tea. This is a terrific entry-level proposition, and I highly recommend you find a bottle (of 45,870 produced)."
