The wine
The vines are 35 years old and the wines produced are rich, with elegant tannins and a perfect balance. Elevage lasts 18 to 20 months after a two-week maceration on lees.
About the Producer 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.
