2024 Abbazia di Novacella-Kloster Neustift Blauburgunder - Pinot Nero Sudtirol, Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy (750ml)

WINEMAKER'S NOTES: 

The aromatic Abbazia di Novacella Pinot Nero is one of the best that Italy has to offer. Vibrant and soft, with supple light fruit tones of under ripe cherry and blackberry that showcase the mountain-fruit profile of the wine. 

TASTING NOTES: 

Quite ambitious yet fragrant with strawberries and pomegranate, licorice and black pepper. Light-bodied, it shows velvety tannins of relatively light extraction and a refreshing finish. Drink now.

Darkly floral, the 2024 Pinot Nero mixes cedar shavings with woodland herbs and citrus-laced black cherries. It is round and soft-textured with a stream of zesty acidity and tart red berry fruits to contrast. The 2024 leaves a subtle tannic crispness while maintaining energy as violet-laced strawberry tones resonate.
