Here comes the most opulent and friendly Barbaresco of Sottimano's overall highly impressive line-up of single vineyards. Bright garnet red with a copper rim. Lavish scent of black fruits, orange peel, rounded off with a fine nutty note. Fine-grained tannin even at a young age coats the firm structure and reinforces the easily recognisable highly individual character. SUPERIORE.DE

"Brightening, medium dense garnet red. Very finely marked nose with rich notes of fresh dark cherries, clear and bright, some anchovy and caper leaves behind. Gripping and gripping on the palate, opens with present, dense tannin, builds nicely, juicy on the final." Falstaff

"Fresh and light on its feet, this cherry- and strawberry-flavored red is accented by floral, tobacco and savory notes. Its tannins are refined, providing a firm layer of support. Shows excellent balance and length." Wine Spectator

"This wine, whose fruit comes from Treiso, is often characterised by its immediate and accessible personality, with silky tannins and delicate floral aromas. The Sottimano family cultivates five different vineyard sites in the appellation. The 2017 Barbaresco Pajoré is a little more restrained in this vintage, with a wide range of earthy, wild fruit and liquorice aromas. This expression offers a lower threshold for aromatic highlights. However, the palate is more polished and constructed in this vintage, with firm, freestanding tannins providing lift." Wine Advocate

"Violets, new leather, truffle and spiced plum are just some of the aromas you will find in this captivating red wine. Full-bodied and with youthful tension, the linear palate offers ripe sour cherry, spiced cranberry, star anise and tobacco, framed by tight, fine-grained tannins. Drink 2023-2030." Wine Enthusiast
