Valgella Vigna La Cornella Valtellina Superiore DOCG
Nebbiolo
A red wine of great character, produced through traditional winemaking from Nebbiolo (Chiavennasca) grapes harvested late in the Cornella vineyard, owned by the Fratelli Bettini Winery and situated in a prime location within the Valgella production area.
Produced separately in exceptional vintages in numbered bottles, this wine resembles the Sforzato in character; it is not as high in alcohol but features distinctive aromas, a rounded mouthfeel, and a complex bouquet. Excellent with game, it is well-suited for long-term aging.
