Details

The best Nebbiolo grapes are dried for 2 months in the “fruttaio” a ventilated area on the top floor of the CasaClima Wine cellar.

The fruit caresses the palate and brings an extended feeling of warmth, best shared in good company. The label portrays the ancestry of the court and it's people.

From grapes grown in the Valtellina Superiore area in the districts of Berbenno, Sondrio, Montagna e Teglio, between 350 and 500 metres above sea level

Winemaking
Full bodied, macerated for 18 days, matured for 18 months in oak casks and further aged in the bottle for 10 months
