Sottimano Pajorè Barbaresco 2017

Violet, new leather, truffle and spiced plum are just some of the aromas you’ll find on this captivating red. Full bodied and boasting youthful tension, the linear palate delivers mature Morello cherry, spiced cranberry, star anise and tobacco framed in tightly knit, fine-grained tannins. Drink date: 2023-2030. Score – 96. (Kerin O’Keefe, Wine Enthusiast, Oct. 1, 2020)
