About this wine
Sanadaive is Adriano Marco e Vittorio's second single-vineyard Barbaresco, sourced from the Sanadaive plot in San Rocco Seno d'Elvio. Aged around a year in medium-sized oak casks (35-50 hl), it tends to show a lighter, more perfumed profile than Basarin, with dried rose, spice, and a touch of smoked meat on the nose, framed by firm, refined tannins.
A more fragrant, slightly gentler introduction to Adriano's single-vineyard Barbarescos compared to Basarin.
Sommelier's Note
"If Basarin is the powerhouse, Sanadaive is the perfumer — proof that Barbaresco's crus can differ as much in character as they do in name."
Food Pairings
Enjoy with roasted poultry, mushroom-based risottos, and semi-hard cheeses; its perfumed elegance also suits lighter Nebbiolo-friendly dishes.
When to drink it
Autumn dinners built around mushrooms and poultry, or as a lighter alternative to Basarin.

Basarin
RedNebbiolo
Barbaresco Basarin is Adriano Marco e Vittorio's flagship single-vineyard Nebbiolo, grown on the Basarin cru in San Rocco Seno d'Elvio near Alba. Fermented and macerated with traditional Piedmontese methods, it is aged around 12 months in large Slavonian oak barrels (30-50 hl) followed by further bottle refinement before release, giving a wine of violet and rose aromatics, licorice and spice, with dry, aristocratic tannins that reward patient cellaring.

Basarin Riserva
RedNebbiolo
The Riserva bottling of Basarin is held back for extended aging under Barbaresco DOCG Riserva rules, giving a deeper, more concentrated expression of the cru. Expect strawberry compote, plump dark cherry and baking spice on the nose, and a juicy, warmly structured palate with the extra time in cask and bottle bringing added complexity and softness to the tannins.
