Article on Valtelline Wines

Really excellent article by KevinDay (who he?) on Valtelline and their wines:

The photos are breathtaking. He highlights most of primo producers. He (rightfully so) places NinoNegri as wallowing in mediocrity.

He decries the lack of white wines in the Valtelline, rightfully so. Actually, Balgera (OliverMcCrum Imprts) thinks they have identified a Nebbiolo Bianco they are propagating. Another of my favorite producers.

About a 20 min read on one of my favorite areas of Italy. Truly heroic viticulture.
