Opening to a luminous garnet color the Paitin 2019 Barbaresco Serraboella Sorì Paitin is delicate and fresh but the wine is not without its inner power and consistency. It plays its cards carefully thanks to a slow-moving bouquet characterized by redcurrant and tart cherry. It gains power on the palate with polished tannins and tight structure. Give this bottle a few more years to unwind. Exactly 13293 numbered bottles were produced.

Winery:
The Sorì Paitin belongs to the Pasquero-Elia heirs since 1796. It is the Serraboella warmest slope, graced with unique soils that since ages is planted with Nebbiolo. Sorì means the first place where the snow melts with the first winter sun rays. Ancient rule to select the best plots for Nebbiolo. Serraboella is the most famous cru in the Southern Neive. A long hill exposed to West that gently bends towards South getting steeper. On this very side: the steepest and the warmest, our Barbaresco has a unique expression. Power, volume are laced by a elegant texture.

VINEYARD: Vines planted 1953-1980, Sourced from selection massale vines in the Sori Paitin section of the Serraboella cru in Neive facing south-southwest at 290 to 310 meters elevation.
SOIL: Sand and marl stratification called Formazioni di Lequio
VITICULTURE: Hand-harvested. Practicing organic. Practicing biodynamic.
WINEMAKING: Nebbiolo is all vinified with the same philosophy: subject to pressing and destemming then he ferments and macerate from 3 to 6 weeks in stainless steel, than it finishes the maceration with the ancient technique of the submerged cap.
AGING: At the end of the winter he is brought to the wood barrels where he stays around 1 year and a half or 2 years when his structure asks. Barrels volume vary between 25 to 50 hectoliters, made of Slavonian and Austrian oak with an age of 15 years
