It is the tannin-rich Pignatello (el. Perricone) that forms the basis for this red wine. Pignatello must constitute a minimum 85%, with permission to add local red grapes (0-15%).
The color is intense, ruby red, with a tendency towards orange red after aging. The aroma is vinous and characteristic. This is a dry, well-tasting red wine with a slightly tannic aftertaste.
There is also a Delia Nivolelli Pignatello Riserva.

Did you know?
Italy extends over 10 latitudes – from continental climate to subtropical climate?
So let’s just get one thing straight: at Lombardia (or Lombardy), Italy’s most populated and industrialized region, doesn’t exactly prioritize wine production. Actually, the combined output isn’t that significant, and what is produced is normally consumed locally, especially the wines from Oltrepò Pavese.
