Made from 100% Chiavennasca (Nebbiolo), this wine is fermented and aged in stainless steel and cement tanks, with a short maceration and maturing period to promote clarity, it is a wine to be enjoyed young and is a great gateway example to introduce you to Lombardy’s Valtellina region.
Again, not as deep or with the concentration that the 2018 had, it still makes for a rewarding wine and it is wonderful and flexible with a good range of cuisine choices, this 2021 can be slightly chilled and used for picnics or outdoor dinning in warm Summer days. This juicy ruby/brick hued “Nettare” Rosso di Valtellina shows off pretty rose petals, mineral, brambly raspberry, strawberry, macerated cherry and tree picked tangy plum, along with baking spice, anise, grilled orange and delicate savory/earthy tones with a silky viscosity and soft tannin structure. The new vintage of Tenuta Scerscé’s “Nettare” Rosso di Valtellina DOC is brightly fresh and slightly lighter in form to their 2018 version that I first tried last year, but still is a delicious, easy to love red fruited, medium bodied and spicy Nebbiolo, or Chiavenasca as it is called locally, that I enjoyed very much recently. 2021 Tenuta Scerscé, Chiavenasca (Nebbiolo) “Nettare” Rosso di Valtellina DOC, Lombardy, Italy.
