The wine

Description and technical sheet

Sfursat 5 Stelle by Nino Negri was obtained from 100% Nebbiolo grapes - locally called Chiavennasca - harvested late to allow over-ripening of the fruit on the plant (and therefore a higher sugar concentration and a lower water content). After the harvest, the bunches were left to dry further for about 90 days in a natural way. The fermentation process took place in steel with long maceration on the skins. Before release, the wine rested for 16 months in French Alliers barriques plus a further 6 months in the bottle. This is the flagship of the production of the Nino Negri winery, the result of a careful selection of the best bunches. An excellent red wine from heroic viticulture (so-called because it is practised on steep slopes) typical of Valtellina.

SFURSAT 5 STELLE NINO NEGRI: TASTING

The Sfursat di Valtellina 5 Stelle by Nino Negri is presented in the glass with an intense ruby red colour with garnet reflections. On the nose, it reveals aromas of red fruit in jam intertwined with mentholated hints and clear notes of dark spices. Soft and deep, on the palate, it reveals a delicate tannic texture and strong gustatory persistence. At the table, it goes well with cured meats and aged cheeses as well as with structured recipes based on red meats and game.
