Pinot noir (Pinot Nero or Blauburgunder) is one of the most cherished and most demanding of all red wines. Pinot noir cannot grow everywhere, however, and is very demanding in terms of vineyard and vinification alike. Due to its delicate aroma and distinctive nature, it enjoys a great deal of importance. This Pinot noir develops to its full potential at the cool yet sunny vineyard sites of Eppan and Kaltern, yielding a structured wine with elegant fullness that is strikingly similar to the Burgundian paragons.
