PINOT DELL’OLTREPO’ PAVESE DOC

Ruby red color of excellent transparency with coppery and brilliant reflections. Olfactory sensations: great cream of spices and plum pulp. There are hints of rose and berries, typical of the variety, mixed with vanilla notes. Wine with a great extractive concentration: the enveloping roundness on the palate is due to the well-developed tannins and the oenological clearness of execution.
