{"product_id":"sottimano-curra-barbaresco-italie","title":"Sottimano - Curra Barbaresco - 2019","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Barbaresco Currà from the Sottimano estate comes from the Currà cru, a renowned hillside located in the municipality of Neive, in the heart of the Barbaresco appellation area in Piedmont. The vines, planted in marl-limestone soils rich in sand and clay, benefit from well-ventilated exposures that promote slow and even ripening of the grapes. This hilly terroir, typical of the Langhe region, gives the wine great aromatic finesse, a slender structure, and a particularly elegant expression of Nebbiolo.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Nebbiolo grapes are harvested by hand and then fermented with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel tanks, with extended maceration and gentle pump-overs. Malolactic fermentation occurs naturally, followed by extended aging in mostly used French oak barrels to preserve the expression of the Currà terroir. The wine is neither filtered nor fined before bottling, reflecting a minimal-intervention approach.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis wine reveals notes of \u003cstrong\u003eblack cherry\u003c\/strong\u003e , \u003cstrong\u003eripe red fruits\u003c\/strong\u003e , and \u003cstrong\u003eplum\u003c\/strong\u003e , complemented by floral nuances of \u003cstrong\u003edried rose\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eviolet\u003c\/strong\u003e , as well as spicy touches of \u003cstrong\u003elicorice\u003c\/strong\u003e , \u003cstrong\u003epepper\u003c\/strong\u003e , and \u003cstrong\u003esweet spices\u003c\/strong\u003e .
