With fruit from Neive, the 2018 Barbaresco Fausoni is another gorgeous wine from Sottimano. This expression is polished and glossy, showing enormous purity to all the senses. You can get very enthusiastic about this bottle, thanks to the graceful nature of its cassis, dried raspberry and plum-like aromas. These wines from the village of Neive show excellent results in this cooler 2018 vintage.

The 2018 Barbaresco Fausoni is flush with ripe peach, rose petal, dried strawberry, and white truffle. The structure is lean but inviting, with dried raspberry, orange zest, and dried tea as well as fine tannins. Refreshing and open, this is ready for rather youthful enjoyment. Drink 2021-2034.
