Production
Piemontese Pinot Noir Carlo decided to combine the results of two parcels - 50% underwent fermentation in stainless steel with a portion (20%) of whole bunches – whilst the grapes for the remaining 50% were crushed and fermented in large wooden casks. Malolactic fermentation took place in stainless steel. After blending the wine spent 12 months in oak - 75% large cask and 25% barriques - before bottling.
Tasting notes
Raspberry and sour cherry with just a hint of spice. The finish is juicy and slightly savoury with soft, balanced tannins.
Food match
Try with Ligurian rabbit stew or Piemontese agnolotti al plin.
