Pinot Noir DOC

Still Red Wine

The Pinot Noir grape variety owes its name to the distinctive "pinecone" shape of its grape cluster. It has been present in the hills of Piacenza and Pavia since the 1500s, though the variety we know today likely originates from the French strain. Grown in marl and calcareous soils, such as those in Lombardy and Piedmont, this grape reveals its challenging nature. In the cellar, a deep understanding of its unique characteristics is required to fully enhance its aromas.
