VESPER Rosso di Valtellina DOC
Vesper is a god of Greek mythology, personification of the evening light. The terraced vineyards, south-facing and located in the area surrounding the San Lorenzo Convent (1100) at an average altitude of 500 metres, bathe luxuriously in the sun’s rays from sunrise to sunset.
A fresh. young Nebbiolo with vibrant acidity, subtle floral hints and undertones of underbrush. It's light-to-medium bodied with soft tannins; versatile and approachable.
Vesper is a fresh and pleasing wine, an intriguing introduction to the other wines, heralding the elegant structure of the San Lorenzo Convent terroir, an expression of the beauty of mountain Nebbiolo.
