Historically this was the only place with Nebbiolo in the South of Neive. The soil here is way much compact with respect to the rest of the hill. Is the highest and sunniest part of the hill. That is summarised by the Sorì name, from the local dialect. In 1893 we named our first Barbaresco out of the Nebbiolo from this plot.
Dark, mysterious and inviting, […] all about allure. Dark spices, menthol, sage, rosemary and dried flowers grace the palate in a dark, sumptuous Barbaresco.
