Ar.Pe.Pe. Grumello Rocca de Piro Riserva, Valtellina Superiore Grumello DOCG, Italy 2015 Chateau Talbot A full-bodiedFruit for this wine comes from the high altitudes of the Rhaetian Alps, where decomposed granite soils make for a dark contrast against brilliant white ice and snow falls. The Ar. Pe. Pe. 2015 Valtellina Superiore Nebbiolo Grumello Rocca de Piro reveals a long succession of dried raspberry, cassis, pressed violets, iron ore and crushed stone. This wine promises to make a terrific pairing with a simple plate of thinly sliced Valtellina bresaola. 93 Pts
