The sub-zone Inferno in Valtellina is one of the most interesting. The name probably derives from the harshness of the small terraces, situated between Poggiridenti and Tresivio, which make the work of the farmers extremely tiring. But it is also, and above all, the area of Valtellina that enjoys the best exposure and where the Nebbiolo grapes are always able to reach perfect ripeness. Cruus is Mamete Prevostini's interpretation of this interesting anchor of territory. Grapes harvested strictly by hand and processed in steel at controlled temperature, after fermentation are passed into oak barrels for the usual phase of maturation. It takes about 12 months in wood and at least 10 months in the bottle to achieve finesse and balance. At that point, however, what you get is a great wine of the territory, characterized by a beautiful ruby red color that is not overly charged. On the nose it is dominated by fine scents, with clear recognition of morello cherry and small red fruits, well supported by mineral and spicy notes. on the palate it is harmonious, fresh and with great character. A beautiful wine that knows perfectly how to draw attention to the center of a table. Good today, it is a wine capable of evolving over the years, acquiring ever greater complexity. Let's save it for the right opportunity.
