Description: The dark ruby colour of this Pinot Noir already suggests its superb concentration. Its aromatic depth opens generously in the glass: a multifaceted fragrance of amarelle cherry and lingonberry is accompanied by delicate vanilla and subtle oak spice. The highly elegant palate impresses with precisely chiselled acid structure, velvety tannins, and a compelling, long finish.
Grape variety: Pinot Noir - South Tyrol DOC Only the ''Vigna'' classification guarantees the origin of a single-vineyard wine in Italy.
Production area: Like Vigna S. Urbano, Vigna Roccolo is a small, extraordinary ''cru'' within the Mazon vineyard. During the period in history that Ludwig von Barthenau owned it, Pinot Noir thrived in the heart of this vineyard next to a ''roccolo'', a bird snare construction. This Pinot Noir possesses the enormous potential originating from an exceptional site in which a significant portion of the vines is over 70 years old. Soil:A mixture of clay, lime, eroded porphyry and fine gravel.
Vinification: Grapes are manually selected, then destemmed and selected once again by hand on a sorting table. After a brief, cool maceration to enhance fruit aroma, the must ferments for 10 days at a constant temperature. Maturation occurs in three phases. In the first phase, the wine matures for around 18 months in small oak barrels. After assemblage, it remains for another 6 months in large oak casks. Once the wine is bottled, it is allowed to rest for another 12 months in the Barthenau Estate cellar.
Food pairing: Red meats, venison and game, and mild cheeses.
Serving temperature: 16 - 18°C.
Ageing potential: motr than 10 years.
Bottle size: 750 ml - 75 cl - 0,75 lt.
Allergens: wine can contain sulphites.
Producer: J.Hofstätter Winery In 1907, Josef Hofstätter founded a winery in Termeno which has developed today into the largest family estate winery in all of Alto Adige. Areas of cultivation of 50 hectares in the west and the east of the Bassa Atesina, in the south of Trentino and, as the first winegrower from Italy, even to the Saarland in Germany are tended under the direction of Martin Foradori and the J. Hofstätter brand. Soils, climate, elevation: all of these should be reflected by the wines of J. Hofstätter. They focus on local grapes: Pinot Blanc, Lagrein, Schiava, Gewürztraminer, and Pinot Noir.
