    Sorpasso Tachìss is a captivating and enveloping red wine from the hills of Valle d'Aosta and Piedmont. This non-vintage wine showcases an intense and brilliant deep rose with red-orange highlights. On the nose, it offers an aromatic bouquet of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and raspberries, complemented by floral notes and a subtle hint of spices.

    Thachiss is a versatile wine, perfect for pairing with a wide range of dishes.

    • Colour: Deep rose with red-orange highlights.
      Nose: Pretty aromatics with rose petal, red fruit, and hints of anise.
      Palate: Fresh, lively, and supple in the mouth, with cherry and berry overlaying
      floral and herbaceous notes. There is a lovely ‘Nebbiolo’ bite on the finish.

    • Carema is a small town nestled between Valle d’Aosta and Piedmont, known for its extreme terrain—rocky, steep, and challenging. The vinification process here is demanding, with cultivable areas painstakingly carved from the mountains, situated between 300 and 700 meters in altitude.

      Vittorio, a renowned oenologist, and his wife Martina, an architect, both born in Carema. A few years ago, they decided to dedicate themselves to producing the finest wines from their land. Their journey began in 2012 when they rented their first vineyard in Carema. Today, their winery is celebrated as one of the highlights of the entire region.

      Martina and Vittorio tend to their vineyards by hand, fully respecting the surrounding environment and focusing on native grape varieties.
