Description

Jeb Dunnuck Review
Rated 90
Also all Nebbiolo, the 2016 Valtellina Superiore Essenza is similarly light ruby-hued and has a complex bouquet of sour cherries, leafy herbs, truffle, white flowers, and violets. Medium-bodied, silky, and elegant on the palate, it's another pretty and lively wine from this estate.

Wine Tasting Notes
Valtellina Superiore DOCG are among Lombardy's most prestigious wines. The vineyards for the Tenuta Scerscé "Essenza" Valtellina Superiore DOCG are fragmented throughout Teglio and Villa di Tirano, planted on rock terraces, some of which were constructed over centuries ago. Often less than one acre in size, the plants are positioned in the traditional "rittochino" method which connect each vineyard through stone stairs. "Essenza" Valtellina Superiore is 100% Nebbiolo (Chiavennasca) fermented in stainless steel and aged in second passed 50 HL oak casks for 24 months. The wine exhibits the "essence" of Valtellina - a great harmony between tannic structure, fruit and freshness.

Ruby red color tending to garnet. Fresh and momentum, intense aroma of red fruit are reminiscent of plum, morello cherry and their jams with light spicy notes. Elegant and harmonious, it fits perfectly with pizzoccheri, white and red meat, game, oily fish and aged cheese.

How To Serve

Temperature Matters: Serve whiskey and bourbon at room temperature, vodka chilled, and tequila slightly cool to preserve aroma and balance.
Choose the Right Glass: Use a rocks glass for whiskey, a flute or coupe for sparkling spirits, and a tulip or snifter for aged liquors.
Don’t Rush the Pour: Allow spirits to breathe for a few moments before tasting — it softens alcohol notes and opens complex flavors.
Savor with Intention: Sip slowly, appreciate aroma before taste, and pair thoughtfully with food or fine company.
