Terroir: This Pinot Noir hails from the Alto Adige region, with a DOC designation that speaks to its quality and origin. The vineyards are strategically situated on slopes with southwest and east orientations, showcasing slopes ranging from 5 to 70% and an elevation that ranges from 450 to 600 meters above sea level. These conditions contribute to the wine's unique character.

Winemaking Craftsmanship: The winemaking process is a careful orchestration of manual harvest and grape selection, followed by destemming and slow must fermentation at controlled temperatures. Gentle agitation of the must in stainless steel tanks ensures optimal extraction of flavors. The wine then undergoes malolactic fermentation and ages for 12 months, with a blend of aging in big wooden barrels and barriques. This meticulous approach results in a wine that's both nuanced and expressive.

Ageing Potential: With proper storage and care, this Pinot Noir has a promising ageing potential of more than 5 years. The cool storage at constant temperatures, high humidity, and minimal light ensure the wine's continued evolution and refinement.
