La Mossa - Valtellina Superiore DOCG

This is our regular harvest, the second Nebbiolo grape harvest in chronological order. The grapes are harvested in 12 kg boxes towards mid-October, two weeks after the Sforzato harvest.

This wine represents Valtellina and the vine cultivation in the mountains, fresh and vertical, fine and elegant.

Why the name “La Mossa”? When I was young, I became passionate about the Palio di Siena, the traditional horse race held in the Tuscan city. The start of this race is called “la mossa”, in English “the move”, so this is the name I gave to my first wine, which represents my beginning, my first move.

“La Mossa è valida, la mossa è valida”, is shouted when the start of the race is valid. Smiling this is what I think when our clients appreciate this wine.
