AboutMamete Prevostini
The Prevostini family’s wine story began in Mese, where Mamete’s grandparents made wine and local food for travellers early in the twentieth century. Mamete began releasing wines under his own name in 1995.
His Valtellina Nebbiolo comes from steep Alpine terraces supported by dry-stone walls, with most grapes harvested by hand. In Postalesio, a three-level gravity-flow cellar places grape drying and crushing, fermentation, and maturation on separate floors.
Mamete Prevostini 2024 Botonero Alpi Retiche Rosso
Italian Red
Bright ruby colour with moderate transparency accompanies cherry, currant, strawberry, rose and violet. The flavour is fresh and the wine is medium-bodied. Nebbiolo grows in the province of Sondrio on south-facing sites between 300 and 700 metres, over sandy and silty decomposed granite. Skin maceration lasts six days. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation and about eight months of maturation in stainless steel.

Italian Red
Mamete Prevostini 2015 Albareda Sforzato di Valtellina
Italian Red
Ripe red and dark fruit open into liquorice, alpine herbs, mint and cocoa. The palate is full-bodied and enveloping, with concentrated fruit, well-integrated tannins and a savoury saline thread that keeps the richness composed. The finish is long, balanced and quietly powerful. Decant before serving with braised beef, venison, aged hard cheese or mushroom ragu.
Mamete Prevostini 2013 Corte di Cama Sforzato di Valtellina DOCG
Italian Red
Subtle vanilla, cedar and steeped prune open slowly, leading into dried black cherry, mocha, liquorice and star anise. The palate is dense and full-bodied, its concentrated fruit framed by close-grained tannins. Warmth builds without losing shape, carrying dark fruit and savoury spice through a long, composed finish.
