Valter Mattoni - Arshura

"Even if I wanted to try to describe Valter Mattoni wines in an official way, he won’t let me. He would surely say: this wine is to get rid of the Arshura (that means something like dryness or burning thirst). Because, as he says, we have Arshura for everything: things, food, love, sex and surely wine.
But I have to say that his wines are incredible. They are a synthesis of rural and intense flavors and they have a great balance between simplicity and complexity. Wines for intellectuals that want to get rid of the burden of sophisticated matters and want just to simply drink it, and wines for easy people that what to shock their simple existence.
In Arshura, feel the strong tannins and the ripe fruit. That sense of creamy dryness that fills all your palate and calls some rich (even greasy) food." - Alessandro Pepe
