Sorì San Lorenzo comes from the homonymous cru and is a Barbaresco crafted from the purest expression of Nebbiolo, Piedmont's greatest and most famous red grape variety. The grapes, carefully selected during the manual harvest, undergo a two-stage aging process, essential for fully developing the wine's characteristics. First, the wine spends 12 months in barriques, followed by another year in large oak barrels. After this total maturation period of 24 months, the wine is ready to be bottled and released to the market.
It presents a brilliant red color reminiscent of garnet, and on the nose, it is superb: notes of underbrush, ripe fruit, spices, and subtle hints of aromatic herbs. On the palate, it showcases an extraordinary body, with a warm and enveloping taste. The Nebbiolo tannins are clearly evident, along with its remarkable acidity. Perfectly balanced and extraordinarily persistent.
A wine suitable for very long aging and perfect for a special occasion. It pairs wonderfully with dishes of great structure, ideally based on red meats and game, but it also shines when served alongside aged and very mature cheeses.
To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a temperature of 16-18°C.
