Valtellina Superiore Valgella stretches over the largest area of the five sub-zones, and lies between the cities of Chiuro and Teglio.

The Valgella type distinguishes itself from the other Valtellina Superiore wines due to its lighter color, but that doesn't prohibit it from getting better with age. A delightful aroma, dry taste, harmonious and round. The fresh floral aroma makes this wine interesting, especially when it's young.

Enjoy it with red meat, mature cheese, or especially with the valley's famous local dishes: pizzoccheri, bresaola and Violino di Capra.
