Valtellina is one of the most northerly wine-growing areas of Italy. The vines are grown on the mountain slopes facing south, giving protection and insulation whilst they mature. The first to cultivate vines in Valtellina came from Liguria, (where cultivation is also on narrow terraces), then the Etruscans and Romans. "Heroic wine-growing", we can call like this 'cause here the territory is precipitous and everything is handmade! Alberto Marsetti is a official spokesman about the Heroic wine-growing from 1986. In fact, Alberto form that year, carriers on the work of his grandfather Angelo. We product 500 hl of wine. The most come from the Nebbiolo variety (called Chiavennasca) and from local variety "Brugnola", "Pignola" and "Rossola". In the historic center of Sondrio, the wine's mature in barrels and old wooden vats. Just here, originated the two V.S. docg GRUMELLO and LE PRUDENZE, but also ROSSO DI VALTELLINA doc, SFURSAT DELLA VALTELLINA docg and the last born A.R. IMPERFETTO igt
We visited the spectacularly underrated town of Sondrio and its surrounding vineyards in mid October, on the same day the vendemmia started (the harvest of the wine grapes). Afterwards we went for wine tasting at Alberto Marsetti's winery.Their 2019 vino ready to hit the shelves after a 3 year ripening period is fabulously fresh and "spiccato", their Sfursato,Prudence are delicious,yet l loved the ImPerfetto- from 100%Nebbiolo grapes, the Imperfetto playfully says " l'm perfect" and l do agree.

Founded in 1919, Plozza is a dynamic winery, characterized by a strong predisposition to innovation: it was the first one to market Sforzato in 1946 and today it still offers increasingly refined products, including the packaging. Minimalist labels embellish the company's wines, which can be tasted at the exclusive showroom made of glass and carbon fiber. The modern and attractive architecture, which encloses an unmissable barricaia, is framed by centuries-old vineyards that climb to terraces on the sides of the mountain.

Casa vinicola Aldo Rainoldi is mainly focused on the production of red wines obtained from the noble Italian native grape variety: Nebbiolo. In our cellar you can taste the "classic" wines like Sassella, Inferno and Grumello (also the reserves), sip our "Sfursat" and see our oak casks and barriques. The small contribution of 20 € is for the cellar's guided tour and for the tasting of 5 wines.
