Pinot Nero
Trentino DOC
Despite its French origins, Pinot Nero has found a perfect habitat in some areas of Trentino, especially in Lavis and Giovo. Pinot Nero grapes reach the optimal level of maturity only after a long stay on the vine.
Simboli Pinot Nero enchants with its ruby-red color and head notes of cherries and marasca cherries, that slowly evolve into a pleasant aroma of wild berries. The wine is delicate and fruity on the palate, while the fine and silky tannins add a full and pleasantly enduring flavour.
