Special features: for the production of this wine Cantina Nera uses “Chiavennasca” Nebbiolo grapes from the specific “Grumello” area of Valtellina Superiore Docg. In this case the vineyards are located in the municipalities of Sondrio and Montagna in Valtellina; in the latter town we can also visit Castel Grumello, a fortified fortress dating back to the 13th century, a rare example of a "twin" castle, i.e. two specular buildings joined by a stretch of wall.

Special features: the Nebbiolo “Chiavennasca” grapes used by Caven Vini to produce this wine come from the “Sassella” area of Valtellina Superiore Docg. We are at the gates of Sondrio, in the municipalities of Castione Andevenno and the provincial capital itself, as well as some small "fractions" located at an altitude ranging between 400 and 500 meters above sea level. The vineyards of this area benefit more, compared to those of the other areas, from the positive influence of the "breva", the typical wind coming from Lake Como, dry and temperate, which acts as a "thermoregulator" not only for the Sassella but also for the rest of the vineyards.

Special features: On the label there is a representation of the Tower "de li beli miri", symbol of Teglio. This tower is what remains of the medieval castle, the Castrum Tiili, built on the Roman ruins of a previous foundation. Surrounded by greenery and situated on a hill, it constitutes a splendid panoramic point over the middle valley. The popular name above derives, in fact, from the spectacular view that can be enjoyed from the summit terrace, where the gaze can range over a stretch of about 60 kilometres.

Special features: the Nebbiolo “Chiavennasca” grapes come from the “Inferno” area of Valtellina Superiore Docg. The name says it all…. we are in the smallest area of the denomination, just over 50 hectares where the slopes of the Valtellina vineyard are close to 75%, therefore the exposure of the dry-stone walls to the sun obviously has a greater effect, creating truly "infernal" temperatures, in particular during the summer season.

Special features: “Satiro” is the invented name that we wanted to use for this wine; refers to a male mythological figure from the Greco-Roman world. Satyr lives in the woods and mountains; it is a deity who personifies fertility and the vital force of nature, connected with the Dionysian cult. In Roman mythology it corresponds to the faun.

Special features: “Efèsto”, a fantasy name that we wanted to use for this wine, is the God of fire and this mythological figure goes well with the characteristics of the area from which the wine comes. This Inferno is part of the classic line called "Vini degli Dei"...one of the divine "nectars" produced on the steep terraces of Valtellina.

Special features: the "coppelle" are closely linked to Caven, the name of our company and of the hamlet of the town of Teglio, where they were found - in the vineyards owned by Caven Wines - several such etchings. However, this Valtellina Superiore Docg Sassella "sinks" its roots in the past, as it is obtained from vines over 60 years old and partly from recently planted vineyards, coming from a clonal selection of Nebbiolo "Chiavennasca" carried out by the Fojanini Foundation.

Special features: It is a wine that demonstrates the great versatility of Nebbiolo "Chiavennasca", as it is the result of an accurate "blend" between Nebbiolo itself and Cabernet Sauvignon, one of the best known and most cultivated vines in the world.

Special features: It is produced exclusively with grapes of the Nebbiolo "Chiavennasca" variety, trained according to the Guyot system modified with the Valtellinese arch system. These grapes are vinified after drying for about 3 months in a "fruit cellar" (dry and well-ventilated room) after being harvested by Cantina Nera exclusively by hand, within the production areas of Valtellina Docg and Doc wines; the healthiest and ripest bunches are selected, in order to obtain a very high quality wine.
