THE SOTTIMANO WINERY

The Sottimano winery has always placed sound agriculture at the heart of its modus operandi. For several years, it has come full circle with increasingly pure and authentic wines, worthy ambassadors of a special land.

Andrea Sottimano inherited an extraordinary agricultural sensitivity from his father Rino, who has always been tireless in his work among the vines. Behind the scenes, but equally fundamental, is the meticulous work of Elena and Claudia, Andrea’s sisters. Rino never fell into the trap of the pesticide industry’s false promises: here, they have always worked hard with copper, sulfur, a hoe, and plenty of sweat. Today, fortunately, there are less strenuous and increasingly low-impact solutions that Andrea continues to research and apply—the best possible way to enhance and preserve a truly sublime and diverse heritage of crus.

BARBARESCO COTTA’

The Sottimano 2023 Barbaresco DOCG Cottà is a traditional Piedmontese wine, expressing the authenticity of one of Italy’s most prestigious denominations. Hailing from the vineyard of the same name in the municipality of Neive, this Barbaresco is the result of meticulous craftsmanship and great attention to terroir.

– WINEMAKING AND AGING –

After a careful selection of the grapes, alcoholic fermentation occurs spontaneously. Following long maceration on the skins and a period of submerged cap, the wine is racked into wood where it completes malolactic fermentation. Resting in the bottle for approximately another year allows the wine to reach its full expressive potential.

– TASTING NOTES –

brilliant garnet red color; it presents notes of licorice and a light touch of smoke, while floral hints dominate with dried rose. It remains delicate on the palate despite its aromatic persistence and well-structured tannins.

– IDEAL PAIRINGS –

it pairs well with braised meats, red meat pies, game, and aged cheeses. It even complements chocolate.
Serving temperature: 18°C

– STORAGE –

With remarkable aging potential, the Sottimano 2023 Barbaresco DOCG Cottà is a perfect choice for those seeking a wine that tells stories of passion, terroir, and time
