Visiting @sandrofaywine in the heart of Valtellina where Nebbiolo clings to impossibly steep Alpine terraces and every bottle feels like a reflection of the mountains themselves 🍷⛰️ Family-run since 1973, with generations dedicated to expressing the soul of Valgella through altitude, granite soils, and heroic viticulture. Truly one of Italy’s most special places to grow wine.

It’s always a pleasure to welcome Elena Nicodemi to NYC from her family’s winery in Abruzzo. It was so exciting to see her at the Vinous Icons of Italy event, where she presented her new Cocciopesto amphora wines! But, of course, breaking bread and meeting customers all around the city is our favorite part! Thank you @fattorianicodemi for a wonderful visit and for bringing us your beautiful wines!

A few unforgettable days in Dogliani with the Abbona family 🍷

From walking the vineyards to sharing meals and tasting wines rooted so deeply in the Langhe, it was a special reminder of how much care, history, and respect for the land goes into every bottle.

Thank you to the Abbona family for your incredible hospitality and for hosting us during our stay at the winery. Grateful for the time, the generosity, and the memories. 🇮🇹✨
