Rosso di Valtellina | Local Wine Appellation From Valtellina, Italy | TasteAtlas

Rosso di Valtellina

This full-bodied Italian wine is produced in the Valtellina region, more precisely in the province of Sondrio, with at least 90% Nebbiolo (Chiavennasca) grapes, while the rest 10% may include other Lombardian grape varieties such as Rossola, Pignola, and Brugnola.


Considered to be the subtlest of all Valtellina wines, Rosso di Valtellina is harmonious and fresh, with typical fruity notes and hints of spices and dry flowers. Because of its well-balanced character, it pairs well with pasta dishes, various appetizers, poultry, Piemontese bollito misto (mixed boil meat), and traditional Lombardian classics such as pizzoccheri alla Valtellinese.
