The 2016 Valtellina Superiore Inferno Riserva Sesto Canto is powerful, deep and explosive. Red Nebbiolo fruit, blood orange, mint and white pepper all soar from the glass The 2016 offers a beguiling mix of fruit and structure, all supported by vertical energy and tons of drive. It's one of the highlights in this range from Ar.Pe.Pe.

94 points Wine Spectator

There are lovely accents of eucalyptus and lavender to the rich fruit and spice character in this silky red, which delivers a generous beam of mulled cherry flavors. Finely balanced and long on the palate. A beauty.

92 points James Suckling

Lifted red currant, camphor and rose aromas. Light-bodied with crisp acidity and dusty yet light and crunchy tannins. The structure defies integration, but the finish is polished with pristine fruit character. Drink or hold.
