Valtellina Superiore DOCG Orante 2009 Menegola

The Valtellina Superiore Orante from Cantina Menegola comes from vineyards located in the municipality of Castione Andevenno, in the province of Sondrio.

It is produced exclusively with Nebbiolo grapes, harvested and selected only by hand. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 30 ° C for 7 days. Subsequently the wine ages in barriques for 20 months and for a further 6 months in bottle, before being released on the market.

The Orante is characterized by a ruby red color. The nose opens with harmonious aromas of rose and berries. On the palate it is full-bodied, pleasantly fresh and tannic.

Perfect to accompany first courses with meat sauce and red meats, it is ideal in combination with roasts and aged cheeses.
