This Pinot Nero from Alfio Nicolodi is produced from grapes sourced from several high altitude vineyards in the Val di Cembra, ranging from 450 to 650 metres above sea level. The vines were planted between 1988 and 1995 according to the Guyot system, with a high planting density of 6,500 vines per hectare on clayey soils. Yields are between 70 and 80 q.li/ha. Harvesting is manual, with careful selection in the vineyard.
After harvesting, the grapes are gently destemmed and undergo fermentation with indigenous yeasts. The must undergoes a 15-day skin maceration with two daily pigeages (immersions). The wine then ages for 12 months on stainless steel, before undergoing a further six months of bottle maturation. In the glass, this Pinot Nero shows a deep ruby colour, with delicate aromas of red fruits such as berries. The palate is harmonious, refined and slightly tannic.
This elegant, fresh Pinot Noir is an excellent companion to poultry, veal or mushroom risotto. Lightly spiced dishes also come into their own nicely. Serve preferably at 14-16 °C.
