Pinot Nero
Trentino DOC
The Pinot Nero grape variety, originating from Burgundy, flourishes best in territories characterised by sharp fluctuations in temperature during the grape ripening period. The Valle di Cembra climate with its characteristically chilly currents rising up off the nearby alpine mountain chains favours and enhances the typical aromas of this grape variety. Cembra Pinot Nero, of a ruby-red colour, has a delicate aroma evoking forest fruits and cherry. On the palate it is soft, with a full, pleasant sapid sensation which emphasizes its persistency.
