GRAPE
Pinot Noir

WINE GROWING AREA
The vineyard is situated in Bassa Atesina, close to the village of Montagna. The grapes are grown with the Guyot system at an altitude of 450 - 600 meters. The gravelly clay soil gives this wine its quintessential minerality.

HARVEST AND YIELD
The grapes for this Pinot Noir reach their ideal stage of ripeness in early to mid-September when they are picked by hand to produce a yield of 65 hectolitres of wine per hectare.

VINIFICATION
After the traditional maceration of Pinot Noir grapes in open fermentation tanks, the wine is aged in large wooden barrels and small barriques.

RECOMMENDATION
This Pinot is a great accompaniment to grilled red meat and mature cheeses.
