The \u003cstrong\u003eQuota 3000\u003c\/strong\u003e project enhances a bottle designed for collection and for aging, thanks to the magnum format, the wooden case, and a highly interesting evolutionary profile. It is a wine that combines the depth of sfursat with the precision of a historic cellar in Valtellina.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTerritory and wine style\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wine is born from vineyards located between 300 and 550 meters above sea level, on sandy-loam soils, shallow and poor in fertility, supported by traditional dry stone walls. The manual harvest and the drying of the grapes in the fruit room concentrate aromas and raw materials, while aging in barrels and bottles helps define a mature, broad, and harmonious style. The subsequent passage at high altitude adds another identity element, linked to the mountain vocation of the project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, it presents a medium intensity ruby color. On the nose, aromas of ripe red fruit, black fruit, classic spices such as pepper, cinnamon, and cloves emerge, along with hints of licorice, mushroom, and hay. On the palate, it is dry, enveloping, and well-balanced, with present but integrated tannins and a fresh acidity that supports the sip. The finish is long, savory, and consistent with a wine of remarkable evolution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended pairings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSforzato Carlo Negri 2016\u003c\/strong\u003e naturally accompanies structured and flavorful main courses, such as braised dishes, game, important roasts, and stews. It also pairs well with traditional Valtellina preparations, aged cheeses, and dishes with mushrooms or cooking reductions. Its intensity allows for rich pairings, while its freshness keeps the sip balanced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eServing temperature\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ideal serving temperature is between \u003cstrong\u003e18 and 20 °C\u003c\/strong\u003e. Considering the structure and long aging, it may be helpful to open the bottle a little in advance to enhance the aromatic expression.
