Etoile du Raisin - 2007 - Stefano Bellotti

85% Barbera, 10% Dolcetto and 5% Ancellotta, 25-year-old vines grown on clay soils. Vinification: 2 months of maceration, matured in vats and casks for 4 years. No sulphites added. In Stefano’s words: "L'Etoile is a concentration of the vibrations of the world, captured by plants to constitute their being. Thanks to the long maturation process during its creation, it manages to embody in a particularly elegant way this game of contrasts between the world of growth – of the liquid and continuous – and that of construction – of the solid."
