Sottimano

Fausoni 2018

Barbaresco DOCG

Italie - Piémont

Fausoni is a sui generis Barbaresco, truly special, slow to define itself, with an imposing character that needs time and rest in the cellar to reach its peak.
This vineyard (1.5 ha) located in the heart of the Neive hills produces very elegant wines with a full-bodied structure.

           

Grape varieties:

100% Nebbiolo

Tasting notes:

This wine impresses with its firmness and density. It has a great presence on the palate and is harmonious, with many ripe and elegant tannins. The bouquet is already complex, with dark berries, morello cherry, floral notes and a fine woodiness that is completely digested by the beautiful material.
This wine will evolve quietly for about twenty years and we recommend that you let it age for at least 5 years before thinking of touching it. It would be such a shame to get only a small taste of the enormous potential of this wine.

                            

Wine style :

Powerful and complex red wine.

Food and wine pairing:

Lamb chops, tagliatelle with truffles. Pigeon stuffed with ceps, mashed potatoes with cep juice and thyme.

Cellar ageing potential:

30 years.
