Montagna in Valtellina

Among the towns of Lombardy, Montagna in Valtellina stands out for its terraced vineyards above the Adda valley. The municipality occupies sunny slopes on the north side of Valtellina, beneath the Rhaetian Alps, while the valley floor leads west toward Sondrio and east into a major Alpine corridor. Viticulture here is shaped by dry-stone terraces and Chiavennasca, the local name for Nebbiolo; the area forms part of Valtellina’s established red-wine tradition. Rather than a compact urban centre, Montagna is a hillside community of hamlets, lanes and cultivated plots, with the broad valley continually present below.
