Söl Valtellina Superiore Valgella DOCG 2021 - Barbacàn

The brothers Luca and Matteo Sega are among the newcomers to Valtellina. Since 2006, they have been setting up an independent wine-growing business from family-owned vineyards. In fact, the inheritance would be far too small to establish an existence. However, as neighbors repeatedly give up winegrowing (too steep locations, too expensive maintenance, too low grape prices), they can buy more land on an ongoing basis. The Sega brothers call their first layer-specific bottling oil. They use the dialect term for “sole”, soil. It is also the name of the plot in the municipality of Teglio. It is located between 450 and 500 meters above sea level and is characterized by granite and quartz. 5500 Nebbiolo trees stand on a hectare. A plant supports an average of 1.2 kilograms. Small wooden barrels are used for the one-year aging process. An impressive alpine Nebbiolo from extremely steep slopes.
