🍷 Nino Negri Valtellina Quadrio
Lombardy, Italy
On the dramatic slopes of the Italian Alps near the Swiss border, the Valtellina region is home to some of the most extreme and breathtaking vineyards in the world—so steep that the uppermost grapes are harvested by helicopter. From these alpine heights comes the 2021 Quadrio from Nino Negri, a brilliant expression of Nebbiolo (locally known as Chiavennasca).
This medium-bodied red is elegant and lifted, offering aromas of wild red cherry, alpine herbs, and crushed stones. The palate reveals a bright core of red fruit—think tart cherry and red currant—balanced by fine-grained tannins and a savory, mineral-driven finish. The wine’s cool-climate freshness and mountain elegance make it uniquely distinctive and wonderfully food-friendly.
