Zinzèle Pinot nero

Pinot Nero IGP Vigneti delle Dolomiti – Riserva

Pinot Nero 100%

In densely planted rows with pruning à la Guyot (n. 9730 plants/hectare)

After an old terraced vineyard had been recalimed in 1991, and the soil renewed, with the aid of technological innovations, the hillside slope was densely planted with low vines. “Collina Zinzèle” was thus created with the vines growing on the steepest side of the slope in order to achieve a limited yield of superior grapes from every vine.

40 hl. per hectare

“Collina Zinzèle” vineyard (Location: SANO Municipality of Mori TN)

Fermentation on the skins for 2 weeks. Ageing of the wine in small French oak barrels for about 24 months.

Red and sometimes intense garnet red reflections

Intense with scent of forest fruits (wild strawberries and blackberries) wild cherries and bitter cherries. After an initial fruity scent, there is a sensation of spices (liquorice, vanilla etc)

In the most recent vintages a slight tannic quality and good body, present due to the young age of the wine, stress its strong character, ideally suited to ageing
