The tasting |
|
|
Bright ruby-garnet red. |
|
| | |
|
Subtle Morello cherry aromas and a touch of rose, all on a delicate woody and spicy note. |
|
| | |
|
Rich and remarkably silky, the refined imprint of this Niebbolo delivers a supple, juicy frame on coated, well-balanced tannins. |
|
|
|
The sommelier's advice |
|
|
Decant one to two hours before serving, between 16 and 18°C. |
|
| | |

Osso bucco, grilled beef, cheeses. |

The estate and the wine |
|
|
Guided by an unwavering quest for excellence, Andrea Sottimano produces wines of masterful finesse in Piedmont that are capable of standing the test of time. These providential red wines, full-bodied and sincere, reveal the character of the finest Italian wines, especially those from Barbaresco.
Andrea Sottimano admits that he doesn't speak French very well, but he does speak fluent Burgundian!
In his Barbaresco wines, he expresses with talent this ultimate research to accompany his Nebbiolo to offer him the brightness, the fineness of fruit and the energy which characterize the greatest wines of Burgundy which he cherishes so much! |
