Ponte in Valtellina

Ponte in Valtellina occupies a sun-facing slope above the Adda valley in Lombardy's Valtellina. The settlement climbs from the broad valley floor towards terraced hillsides, where dry-stone walls support vineyards beneath the Rhaetian Alps. Winegrowing is central to local identity: Valtellina wines are made principally from Nebbiolo, known here as Chiavennasca. The area also belongs to the culinary country of pizzoccheri, the buckwheat pasta traditionally served with vegetables and cheese.
