Langhe DOC Nebbiolo Sottimano 2020
The wine
This cuvée is produced from vines that are too young to go into a Barbaresco, allowing nonetheless to produce an elegant wine, accessible in its youth yet able to age for a few years.
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.
