Barbaresco Riserva Sottimano

The wine

This is the domain's finest cuvée, produced only in the best vintages. The vines are an average of 60 years old, allowing to produce a complex wine with aromatic notes of mint and liquorice. On the palate, this wine delivers a nice tannic structure, which also ensures enormous aging potential.

Information about domain Sottimano

Rino Sottimano acquired this domaine in 1975 and was joined by his son Andrea in 1994. The domaine places a great emphasis on tending its vines and cultivating its various terroirs organically. Combining tradition and modernity, the domaine ages its wines in barrels, following the Burgundy method (20% in new barrels), rejecting large barrels as incompatible with the ethos of the domaine. The wines are not filtered or fined.
