About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Sori Paolin plot lies behind the Cascina Luisin winery and has limestone-rich soil whose bright, almost white colour is particularly visible in spring.

Tasting profile

The 2001 vintage has a rich aroma, well-integrated mineral notes on the palate and a dependable structure.

Vintage notes

In 2001, dry and rainy days alternated amid record low and high temperatures, creating a tense and unpredictable season in Barbaresco. The harvested Nebbiolo was in excellent condition, with fine acidity and good sugar levels.

Label / history

The wine takes its name from the Sori Paolin plot.
