Arpepe - Valtellina Superiore Inferno Riserva Sesto Canto 2016 Ml. 750
Winery Arpepe
Characteristic
We are a family of winegrowers and, for over 150 years, we have been passionately devoted to the cultivation of Nebbiolo. This is a rare grape variety that, over the centuries, has adapted to the Valtellina, a land like no other, where everything is still done by hand. For 5 generations we have always waited for “the time it takes” “the right waiting time” and it is this that sets the pace of our work. Time and humility are what make our wine the purest, sincerest expression of this land and of the people who cultivate it with such dedication. This was the lesson we were taught by our father Arturo, without letting ourselves be influenced by passing fashions and conventional tastes.
We are convinced that the outstanding qualities of Nebbiolo from the Alps means it is more than worthy of its place of honour on the international market of fine wines. Without this worldwide acknowledgement, this age-old activity would simply not be economically sustainable for it rejects any idea of modern mass-production.

Siamo una famiglia di viticoltori che dal 1860 si dedica con passione alla coltivazione del Nebbiolo, un vitigno raro che ha saputo nei secoli adattarsi alla Valtellina: un territorio unico dove tutto viene ancora fatto a mano. Da 5 generazioni “il giusto tempo di attesa” scandisce i ritmi delle nostre scelte ed è così che cerchiamo umilmente di fare un vino che sia l’espressione più pura e sincera della terra e degli uomini che con dedizione la coltivano, come ci ha insegnato nostro padre Arturo, senza lasciarci condizionare dalle mode e dai gusti convenzionali. Siamo convinti che il Nebbiolo delle Alpi, per la sua spiccata originalità,
