Sorelle de Nicola Feyles Barbaresco Riserva “Vigna Montesommo” 2014

100% Nebbiolo. Vineyard of origin:  “Montesommo” vineyard, facing Bordini area in the municipality of Neive (Cuneo). The vineyard was planted in 1970 with Lampia Nebbiolo clones; it faces southwest and extends for about a hectare and a half. Harvesting: Late October. Winemaking: Traditional extended maceration. Fermentation on wild yeast takes up to 30 days, at room temperature and in steel vats, with remontage to break up the submerged cap. Ageing: Refinement lasts for about 24 months in Slavonian oak barrels of medium capacity (30-50hl), after the natural clarification. It then continues for at least about another 24 months in bottle, before commercialization. The wine is neither filtered nor fined; a thin sediment is possible and decanting is recommended. Alcohol content: About 14°. Notes: Intense, ample and persistent, with notes of faded violet and tobacco. Full-bodied and harmonious, with hints of plum, walnut husk and wild berries
