Nebbiolo from Grumello, Valtellina
Savoury, ferrous and bloody with a dusting of tannins. Lovely development. Fine a good expression of Chiavanesca from Valtellinas. Dark cherry, lacing of licorice. Beautifully weighted and flowing. Ar.Pe.Pe doing their thing!Paul Kaan, WINEDECODED Oct 2025The Ar. Pe. Pe. 2023 Rosso di Valtellina gets this impressive range off to a terrific start. Bold, tart black cherry leads the way, with beautifully pure primary fruit and hints of iron ore. Medium-bodied and juicy, this is a terrific
Nebbiolo from Grumello, Valtellina
The Robin has landed! The Pettirosso is a 50:50 blend of Grumello and Sassella fruit. Boldness coming from Grumello and delicacy with fine, mineral traits from Sassella. Try the Superiores from each of the sub-regions and you’ll see these characters. The blend works beautifully. The 2022 had an epic 101 day extended maceration! An excellent stepwise build in complexity depth and length.
Nebbiolo from Grumello, Valtellina
Grumello is to the east of Sondrio on the opposite side to Sassella making for a fascinating comparison in site! Grumello is to the east of Sondrio on the opposite side to Sassella making for a fascinating comparison in site! This is where the largest strides have been made. We’ve seen both of the Grumello Riservas priced at the same point now. Whatever is happening in the vineyard or winery to make that happen is translating into this Superiore (ArPePe makes either Superiores or Riservas in

Nebbiolo from Grumello, Valtellina
Grumello is to the east of Sondrio on the opposite side to Sassella making for a fascinating comparison in site! Of the three Superiores this looks the darkest, the tannins sit more aggressively, yet, not overly so. With a plate of food you'd not notice. A little shorter than the other Superiores. The acid appears higher. Another complex offering from Ar.Pe.Pe. A little disjointed at the moment. It is the wine I am least certain of in term of it's evolution as it ages.
Nebbiolo from Grumello, Valtellina
The church of Sant’Antonio a Montagna in Valtellina lies to the east of Rocca De Piro. For centuries, it has protected from on high the vineyards that stretch down along the Risc di Sassina, one of the most generous areas of the Grumello, 450 metres above sea level.Valtellina Superiore Grumello Riserva Sant’Antonio DOCG is brought to life by its long maceration and malolactic fermentation with skin contact. Cuddled and cared for like a child by a generous, resolute mother, it matures
Chiavennasca from Grumello, Valtellina
Part of a trio spanning Grumello, Sassella and Inferno, Valtellina’s own holy trinity, the Ar. Pe. Pe. 2018 Valtellina Superiore Riserva Grumello Buon Consiglio is recognized by its cream-colored label. Dark fruit, iron ore and rusty nail are delivered with extreme elegance and precision. Thanks to the estate’s patient release schedule, the wine is drinking beautifully now, with no reason to delay gratification. I love the finesse and transparency achieved here, along with a charming sweetne
Chiavennasca from Grumello, Valtellina
Beautifully composed, flowing and elegant for a Grumello a commune that can show a little more overt grunt in the context of Valtellina. While there is a rounder mid palate the delicacy entrances. Incredibly layered and fine. The fruit marries woody herbs, spice tea and beyond with a blood orange feel. Long though not quite the length of the Sant’Antonio. Fine drinking to be had here.Very fine, pure, ultra-mineral expression of Nebbiolo here. Strawberry, raspberry, spice, fennel, min
Nebbiolo from Grumello, Valtellina
Once again my preferred Grumello from Ar.Pe.Pe. A build in perceived fruit weight length and depth over the Bon Consiglio with immediate generosity make for superb drinking out of the gate. Comparing this to the 2009 consumed a couple of weeks ago I foresee this building in complexity from an already complex starting point and achieving the incredible transparency of the 2009 as it moves into the next stage of development. Although it will be hard to keep your hands off it!The church of
