Sottimano, Langhe Nebbiolo Basarin, 2023

$30.00

Sottimano is a notable family estate in Barbaresco, known for transparent, site-driven Nebbiolo and meticulous vineyard work. Basarin comes from the Basarin cru in Neive, a south-facing site with limestone and marl soils that tends to produce Nebbiolo of aromatic lift and refined structure. While labeled Langhe Nebbiolo, this bottling reflects the same care and precision as the estate’s Barbaresco wines, offering an accessible view into Sottimano’s philosophy.

The 2023 vintage is bright and expressive, showing red cherry, wild strawberry, and rose petal layered with hints of dried herbs. The palate is focused and energetic, with lively acidity and fine, grippy tannins. Clean and poised through the finish, this is a refined Nebbiolo that clearly signals its Barbaresco origins.

Varietal: Nebbiolo
Appellation: Langhe Nebbiolo, Piedmont, Italy
Farming: Sustainably farmed
Style: Red. Aromatic, structured, and precise
