Boffalora “Umo” Rosso di Valtellina Nebbiolo 2020

Forty-something Giuseppe Guglielmo grew up in the vineyards, but like so many kids of parents and grandparents who made wine, he first plied his trade elsewhere. What happened? Agriculture was in deep crises and people were leaving wine villages in Valtellina heading to Milan and some other industrialized places in Lombardia to make money. Giuseppe spent several years as an auto part mechanic and part-time beekeeper, before he was called back to the vineyards in 2002. Giuseppe and his wife took over her family vineyards and sold their grapes to local wine producers. 2009 was the first vintage they bottled under their own label of Boffalora.

Tasting notes
Bright red color with garnet reflections. Elegant aromas of rose, red fruit and cherries followed by an intense wooden floor. The palate offers vinosity, persistency, a good tannic structure. Bottled unfined and unfiltered with minimal sulfur.
