Sottimano
Fausoni 2018
Barbaresco DOCG
Italie - Piémont
Fausoni is a sui generis Barbaresco, truly special, slow to define itself, with an imposing character that needs time and rest in the cellar to reach its peak.
This vineyard (1.5 ha) located in the heart of the Neive hills produces very elegant wines with a full-bodied structure.
Grape varieties:
100% Nebbiolo
Tasting notes:
This wine impresses with its firmness and density. It has a great presence on the palate and is harmonious, with many ripe and elegant tannins. The bouquet is already complex, with dark berries, morello cherry, floral notes and a fine woodiness that is completely digested by the beautiful material.
This wine will evolve quietly for about twenty years and we recommend that you let it age for at least 5 years before thinking of touching it. It would be such a shame to get only a small taste of the enormous potential of this wine.
Wine style :
Powerful and complex red wine.
Food and wine pairing:
Lamb chops, tagliatelle with truffles. Pigeon stuffed with ceps, mashed potatoes with cep juice and thyme.
Cellar ageing potential:
30 years.
Analysis :
75 cl - 14,5 % volume
Contains sulphites
Alcohol abuse is dangerous for your health. Drink in moderation.
"The consumption of alcoholic beverages during pregnancy, even in small quantities, can have serious consequences on the health of the child.

There is often a young generation within the major appellations that benefits from the experience and know-how of their predecessors and seeks to push the boundaries, to constantly improve wines that already seem at the top.
This is the story of the Sottimano family, established in Neive, one of the three communes forming the prestigious Barbaresco appellation.
Andrea, the son of founder Rino, is now in charge of the estate. Owner of plots on five vintages of the appellation, Sottimano produces five distinct barbaresco, vinified identically, with French barrel farms. Like Burgundy vintages, tasting here is always a great lesson of the different terroirs of this area. Fausoni always the most floral and elegant, accessible in youth. Currà and Cottà, where the family home and winery are located, are powerful, dense, well-built wines for the care. Pajoré is the in-between, combining power and elegance. Basarin seems an ideal combination of all the qualities of other vintages. A dolcetto, a barbera from Alba and a langhe nebbiolo are also produced, as the Piedmontese tradition dictates. For fun, Andrea completes the range with a friendly curiosity, a brachetto vinified in dry, 'Maté'.
Already very qualitative, production has reached new heights in the last five years. A journalist from a great Italian guide recently told us: "Andrea sets new standards, he will write his page in the history of Barbaresco." Prices remain very wise, despite the current rating.
It is a sumptuous wine, of great evolution, already very expressive in its youth but which does not yet completely depart from an elegant austerity. Huge potential...
Barbera Pairolero is a dark red wine with hints of red fruits. The crunchy roundness of the fruit, its purity and its precision of flavors make it an admirable wine.
It is a superb expression of nebbiolo with finesse and freshness.
Pure and fine aromas of rose, violet and crushed blackcover, a prelude to an intense and aromatic material, developing an impression of suppleness. It's very diges...
