Description
Partù Pinot Nero Cordero San Giorgio is the classic wine of the Oltrepò pavese, persuasive and excellent with traditional country dishes.
Grapes grow on an area of about 20 hectares in small plots, vinified separately, destemmed without crushing, whole berry cold pre-fermentation maceration.
Fermented in stainless steel at controlled t, with brief pumping over every day for a pinot noir. After racking, malolactic fermentation in barrels for 12 months, selected and assembled only the best particles.
Rests in bottle for one year.
Tasting Notes.
Cordero San Giorgio’s Partù Pinot Noir is beautiful, ruby red with slight purple highlights, not dense but translucent.
The nose has a prominent red fruit note, including blueberry and black currant, spicy black pepper coming through as it warms.
In the mouth it is fine, soft but not sweet, an amiable wine in the simplest sense of the word, easy to drink.
Pairing
Great to try with pumpkin ravioli, or with feathered game, pairing with cheeses is possible but they are preferred young or at the limit medium-aged.
