Visual

Displays deep purple color in the glass

Palate

The rich body, subtle texture and fine, ripe tannins are typical for this wine of great finesse, the quintessential expression of the Nebbiolo grape.

Nose

Complex aromas of toast, minerals, sour cherries, cedar and spices.

Winemaking

The grapes from Sori Tildin plantation ferment in temperature-controlled stainless steel; then the wine ages in a year each of barrique and botti before bottling.

Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate - The 2013 Barbaresco Sorì Tildìn sees fruit sourced from a vineyard site located directly above Costa Russi. This fruit is harvested at 260 meters above sea level, while the latter is located 30 meters lower in elevation. The age of the vines is slightly younger as well, with 45-years-old being the average age. That subtle change in vineyard location does much to shape the generosity and bounty of the bouquet. There is a distinct softness and roundness here that comes forth as dark cherry, pressed blackberry and plum, with tobacco and leather in a supporting role. This Barbaresco stands on solid feet with tight textural richness that comes exclusively from the Nebbiolo grape. Breaking with past tradition, Barbaresco Sorì Tildìn is made with a single variety.
