✨ In the Glass
Deep ruby with garnet edges, dense and luminous—visually commanding in every sense.
👃 On the Nose
Aromatic fireworks of black cherry, licorice, violets, incense, tar, and crushed stone. As it breathes, layers of tobacco, graphite, and spice emerge, revealing its profound complexity.
🔥 On the Palate
Powerful yet refined. Dark fruit—plum, blackberry, and cassis—unfold over a firm tannic backbone, balanced by fresh acidity and mineral grip. Structured and monumental, yet incredibly precise.
🍽️ Food Pairing
Pairs beautifully with truffle risotto, roast duck, venison loin, or aged Italian cheeses like Castelmagno or Pecorino.
⏳ Ageing Potential
20+ years. This is a wine that will evolve majestically, with tertiary notes and silken depth over time.
💘 Why You’ll Love It
Sorì San Lorenzo is the essence of Nebbiolo greatness, offering the elegance of Barbaresco with the gravitas of Barolo. A singular vineyard expression that balances tradition and modern mastery from the legendary Gaja family.
