Barbaresco Pajore 2018 Vintage Overview

2018 OVERVIEW

Sottimano’s 2018 Barbaresco Pajoré is taut and serious today, with deep cherry and plum fruit wrapped in notes of rose, sweet spice, licorice and a subtle earthy darkness. The palate is full-bodied yet refined, with firm, close-knit tannins and a long, savory finish that hints at herbs and espresso, clearly built for extended aging rather than early flash.

About Barbaresco Pajore

Sottimano’s Barbaresco Pajorè is a single‑vineyard Nebbiolo from the Pajorè cru in Treiso, grown on calcareous‑marl and clay soils and typically from very old, low‑yield vines; the wine is known for floral lift (violet/rose), precise saline minerality and restrained yet well‑defined tannins, achieved through long, spontaneous fermentations and extended oak ageing to produce an elegant, ageworthy Barbaresco that balances savory, balsamic and cherry fruit notes.
