This was the first vineyard purchased by Rino Sottimano and through the benevolent hands of the family men, it gave birth in 2017 to one of the best Barbaresco's they have ever produced! This is their most graceful vintage: beautiful pure cherry fruit, reminiscent of pinot noir, for this wine with a fat, suave and elegant mouthfeel, opulent, but civilised!

Technique

Viticulture

Old vines of 50, 60 and 70 years old, facing south-west on one of the most famous crus of Neive. This is the historic cru of the estate and the one that has enabled it to establish its reputation.

Oenology

Fermentations and macerations last on average about 25 days. No selected yeast is used. Malolactic fermentation is not triggered; it occurs naturally in the spring following the harvest. It is carried out in François Frères Burgundy rooms of noble origin, where the wine remains for 18 to 22 months. There is no filtration or fining before bottling.
