Sottimano Cotta, Barbaresco DOCG, Italy 2019 Drunken Whale and brown sugar lead toSlightly more subdued on first nose, the Sottimano 2019 Barbaresco Cott is the kind of wine that will deliver its best results when it has had time to flesh out and evolve. You can taste the freshness and the tightness of the primary fruit in this vintage, along with plenty of wild cherry and crushed rose. Spicy oak tones emerge carefully as the wine warms in the glass. 94 Pts Wine Advocate
