Special features
"Alisio", the invented name that we wanted to use for this wine, is the epithet of the Greek god of wine. This Sassella is part of the classic line called "Vini degli Dei", one of the divine "nectars" produced on the steep terraces of Valtellina.

Being one of the wines with the Valtellina Superiore Docg denomination, it has also been produced for many years, it is a "classic" for Cantina Nera. The Nebbiolo "Chiavennasca" grapes, which we use for this wine, are harvested in the "Sassella" area, which is located on the outskirts of Sondrio and which "welcomes" the visitor to our provincial capital.
Because it is a wine which, reflecting the characteristics of the area from which it comes, has an intense aroma, deriving from the perfect combination of fruity and floral notes. Vibrant to the sip, being a Nebbiolo, but at the same time characterized by roundness and softness. The ideal product to "approach" Valtellina and its wines.
