Winemaker Notes:
"Bright garnet red. Fine and elegant notes of fresh dark and sour cherries, with notes of herbs, undergrowth and truffles. Great harmony in a dry, tart cherry with strong mineral and hints of savory herbs, framed in a long, fresh and spicy finish. Il pettirosso (the European robin – Erithacus rubecula) can be found everywhere in the woods that now look down on the Valtellina. On special evenings, il Pettirosso comes to dinner on the terraces above Sondrio, puffing out his nebbiolo-red breast and chirping merrily. In special vintages ArPePe makes his namesake Valtellina Superiore. This wine is a unique expression of the three central areas of the DOCG."
