The dynamo that is Mamete Prevostini is an absolute maestro when it comes to Nebbiolo. Mamete’s focus is purity and flavor; the essence of Nebbiolo with an emphasis on what the special Valtellina soils give to the vines.
Unlike the Nebbiolo of Piemonte, the Valtellina grapes grow at a higher altitude during a shorter growing season with cooler days and nights.
The wines, with their crystalline fresh nature are every bit as intense as their Piedmont cousins, offering a greater wingspan of aromas and a lightness on their feet the Piedmont brethren would be hard pressed to duplicate. Tasters will recognize quickly these qualities and differences in each of the Prevostini wines.
