As the name suggests, the red wine Alto Adige Valle Venosta Pinot Nero DOC is made from the Pinot Nero grape, or Blauburgunder (85-100%), as it is known locally, with the permitted addition of local red grapes.
This is a ruby red wine with orange reflections, which become particularly pronounced with age. The scent is ethereal, rousing and characteristic, while the taste is dry, soft and inviting. The wine has a slightly bitter aftertaste.
The wine is also known as Südtiroler/Südtirol Vinschgau Blauburgunder DOC.
If the label mentions “Vigna” (Gewächs or Wachstum), followed by the name of a place, it refers to a specific vineyard area or a “micro zone”.
Combines with local “speck” (pork) soup, with pasta or with soft to semi-hard cheeses.

Italy extends over 10 latitudes – from continental climate to subtropical climate?
Umbria is called ”cuore verde d'Italia” (The green hearts of Italy). The beautiful, green hills that characterize the region’s landscape are on par with Tuscany’s beauty. The same is true of the talent for wine production.
