Casa Vinicola Nino Negri, founded in 1897 and is in Chiuro in the old fifteenth-century Castello Quadrio. It is one of the most renowned wineries in Valtellina and a synonym for Valtellina wines all over the world.

Due to the extremely steep hillsides, Nino Negrs estate has terracing, a system of dry stone walls that support the terraced hillside vineyards built thousands of years ago to allow cultivation of the land.

This is the perfect environment for Nebbiolo to thrive in. Allowing optimum exposure to the mountain sun as well as protection from the cold winds. The wide temperature ranges between day and night encourage the expressive uniqueness of the Nebbiolo grape, locally called the Chiavennasca.

All harvesting is by hand and the grapes are transported down the mountain by helicopter so as to get them to the winery as quickly as possible.
