  Good wine, some ripeness (valtellina) ; could be better in a few years?

  Unblended Nebbiolo wine (locally called Chiavennasca) from terraced vineyards in the subzone ‘Inferno’ of the Valtellina appellation. Opened about two hours before drinking. Translucent garnet-red in color. Scents of sour cherry and cranberry on the nose combined with nuances of anise and tar. The light-bodied palate shows notes of blueberry fruit and rhubarb, but the wine lacks elegance and the tannins are still a bit rough. Reasonable aftertaste.
  
  100 percent Nebbiolo-wijn (plaatselijk ook Chiavennasca genoemd) afkomstig van de geterrasseerde wijngaarden in de subzone ‘Inferno’ van de appellatie Valtellina. Geopend zowat twee uur vóór consumptie. Transparant granaatrood van kleur. In de neus: aroma’s van zure kers en veenbes, gecombineerd met nuances van anijs en teer. Een lichtvoetige wijn met tonen van bosbessenfruit en rabarber, maar hij mist elegantie en de tannines zijn nog vrij stug. Redelijke afdronk.
