BRUT ROSE VSQ First made in the seventies by Giuseppe Rainoldi, this sparkling wine, made with Nebbiolo, Pignola, and Rossola, is a pride of Casa Vinicola Rainoldi. Strictly faithful to the traditional method, this single vintage enhances its uniqueness due to an ageing of 36 months on the lees.

NEBBIOLO ALPI RETICHE IGT Alpi Retiche is the name of a specific area of the Alps that are in Valtellina, very close to the Swiss border. This side of the Alps enjoys a complete southern exposure, that is ideal for ripening the grapes. Alpi Retiche is vinified and aged in 100% stainless steel.

“PRUGNOLO” VALTELLINA SUPERIORE DOCG Prugnolo is the Italian name of the Prunus Spinosa, or wild plum. This bush grows up close to the vineyards and its berries ripen close to harvest time. Grapes for this wine are grown at various altitudes, so they are harvested and vinified separately, depending on the altitude of the vineyard, allowing each grape to achieve its ideal ripeness. The wine is aged in 3 – 6-year-old barriques for 15 months, then is bottle aged for 6 – 9 months before release.
