Ignaz Niedrist Pinot Nero Riserva Blaubergunder, Sudtiroler
| Vintage: | 2019 |
|---|---|
| Description: | The Alto Adige is Italys best region for the production of Pinot Noir, and Ignaz Niedrist is one of its best producers. His Riserva bottling is grown in relatively warm vineyards near his winery. Yields are kept very low, at less less than 2 tons to the acre. The grapes are destemmed, crushed, then left at cold temperatures for few days (cold soak) before fermentation starts in wooden fermenters. No yeasts are added. The wine is aged in barriques (1/4 new) on the fine lees for about 14 months before bottling. Classic color for the variety, pale red with a broad rim. Aromas and flavors of red fruits, forest-floor, cola and mint. Shows a silky texture with some tea-like tannins on the finish. Drinkable young but will repay aging for 5-10 years in your cellar. Lamb chops or roast chicken would be great complements. |
