Fully vinified from Nebbiolo grapes, carefully selected from our hystoric vineyards. Giupa is born from grapes from our vineyards in the town of the same name near Bianzone. Produced by a late harvest of Nebbiolo grapes (Chiavennasca) left ripe on the plants and harvested by hand in late November. This special wine is due to the favourable microclimate and excellent sun exposure of these vineyards, which are among the most valuable areas of Valtellina Superiore D.O.C.G. A true speciality in limited production.
According to the disciplinary measures for "Valtellina Superiore D.O.C.G." production, a wine can only be rated "Riserva" after a 36-month refinement, 12 of which are in oak barrels. Yield: ~60 q/ha with late harvest in mid-November
