Barbaresco “Currá" DOCG 2016

Az. Agr. Sottimano | Piemont
Az. Agr. Sottimano s.s.a. | Loc. Cottà 21 | IT 12052 Neive

Currá ist ein archaischer Langstreckenläufer und präsentiert sich mit zunehmender Flaschenreife oder auch guter Belüftung schon in jungen Jahren sehr aristokratisch. Dann offenbart er im Bouquet dunkle Beeren und eine feine Schokoladen-Note. In seiner Stilistik ist er in anfangs kantig, verleugnet dann aber an keiner Stelle seine Größe und Harmonie. Tabak, Zwetschgen, Rauch und Tabak: Mit jedem Glas offenbart dieser Ausnahme-Wein neue Facetten und ein Feuerwerk der Eindrücke. So geht Nebbiolo von 65 Jahre alten Reben auf höchstem Niveau!

"Mid to deep developing ruby with narrow orange rim. Firm nose of ripe fruit spiked with sweet baking spices. Compact sour-cherry fruit palate with bags of crunchy tannins. Succulent and with tannic bite on the finish. Quite gorgeous." Jancis Robinson

"The 2016 Barbaresco Currà is a dense, explosive wine endowed with huge mid-palate density and potent tannins to match. Wild cherry, tobacco, cinnamon, dried rose petal and spice emerge with a bit of coaxing. The 2016 is a powerful wine." Vinous

"A beefy style, this red buries its cherry, iron and menthol flavors in a matrix of thick tannins. The vivid acidity works in tandem, yet in the end, there's an equilibrium of all the elements, with the fruit reemerging." Wine Spectator

"Showing darker and slightly more saturated fruit, the Sottimano 2016 Barbaresco Currá is a more robust and amply endowed wine compared to the other single-vineyard expressions in this portfolio. Drawing its fruit from the village of Neive, the Currá offers ripe berry and redcurrant with softer tones of spice and tilled earth. The wine's concentration and richness are an absolute pleasure, and you could direct this bottle to a heavier roasted meat dish when the time is right. Fruit is drawn from a 1.5-hectare plot in Neive." Robert Parker
