Ar.Pe.Pe Valtellina Superiore Sassella Nuova Regina Riserva 2018

Attached to the Rocce Rosse, the “New Queen” reaches an altitude of over 450 metres, up to the road from S.Anna to Triasso. In this vineyard there is more rock than earth, and here we have preserved the largest number of old vines: a heritage of ancient genes that in the best years gives one of the longest-lived and most precious Reserves, as only the fruit of completely manual work can give. The ’91 was sensational but finding it on the menu today in some restaurant is more complicated than meeting the Queen.
