The approaching winter has a special flavour: that of the Milan-Cortina 2026 Olympics, which are about to turn the spotlight on our mountains.
Valtellina, already a favourite destination for those who love sport, nature and good food, is preparing to experience a unique season, in which its excellence will be showcased to an audience from all over the world.
With perfectly groomed slopes, snow-covered landscapes and alpine villages that retain their old-world charm, the valley offers an unrivalled mix of outdoor activities: downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, mountaineering, but also simple walks immersed in the silence of the woods. It is an area that welcomes sports enthusiasts, families and travellers in search of authenticity, becoming a place to be experienced at a slow pace, savouring every detail.
Alongside nature, food and wine have always been one of the pillars defining the identity of Valtellina. The Valtellina Consortium is promoting this heritage through initiatives dedicated to culinary excellence, from cured meats to cheeses, wines to traditional dishes, with the aim of highlighting the strong link between products, territory and local culture. A perfect synthesis of tradition, quality and craftsmanship, it is one of the valley's trump cards, especially in view of the Olympic season.
Among these delicacies, bresaola naturally stands out, a gastronomic symbol recognised far beyond the region's borders. It is a product that embodies the history, craftsmanship and expertise of local companies, committed every day to maintaining the quality standards that make Valtellina a benchmark in the Italian food scene.
In this context, Salumificio Mottolini confirms its role as ambassador of Valtellina's taste, supporting and representing the values that unite territory, tradition and quality. The Olympic winter will be a unique opportunity to showcase once again the excellence of products that have always represented Valtellina around the world, bringing the taste of our mountains to the table.
