Sommet means peak, i.e. the view of the mountains behind the vineyards. The Nebbiolo biotype, which is found in the southern alluvial valley of glacial origin, brings the winery back to the origins of viticulture in the Aosta Valley. Sommet was born from the desire to vinify and enhance a traditional grape variety. The result is a wine of great character and cool sophistication, a precise interpretation of the grape variety under the strong influence of the pre-alpine terroir.

Bright ruby red colour. Blackberry, cherry and balsamic notes on the nose. Juicy, precise and flavoursome on the palate, with a long finish that expresses the freshness and cool elegance of this exceptional region. Just 3,300 bottles are bottled each year. SUPERIORE.DE

"Brilliant ruby red with a subtly brightening rim. Perfumed nose of violets and lavender, then dark berry fruit, mint, stony hints on the finish. Polished on the palate, with tight, elegant tannins, very juicy, slightly salty, some peach, great ripeness, bright drinking pleasure." Falstaff

"A compact red, with cherry and strawberry fruit mingling with mint and stony mineral flavors. Despite the powdery tannins, this persists on the finish." Wine Spectator
