Description

Colterenzio Pinot Nero 2019

Colterenzio Trentino Alto Adige

Grape Variety: Pinot Noir from old, pergola-trained vines and more recently planted vertical espalier-trellised vines

Location: West facing slopes at altitudes between 400-500 metres. Soils are morainal mixed with clay and eroded porphyry

Yielding: 52 hl/ha

Wine Making: The crushed grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of approx. 25° C. The skins are kept constantly immersed in the embryonic wine by pushing them down gently. The new wine undergoes malolactic fermentation and is refined in concrete tanks and large wooden casks for at least 6 months

Tasting Notes: Brilliant medium ruby red with a fresh, fruity nose, reminiscent of red currants and black cherry; medium-bodied, round with soft tannins and ripe berry flavours well integrated with the acidity. A stylish and elegant wine

Cellaring potential: 2-4 years

Food Pairing: Perfect partner to light starters, roast partridge, rack of hare, Peking duck, and meaty fish
