Castel Salegg Pinot nero 2014
Winery | : | Castel Sallegg The history of Sallegg Castle dates back to 1851 when surrounding properties with vineyards that had been acquired by Archduke Rainer of Austria, Viceroy of Lombardy and the Veneto were inherited by the Von Kuenburg Counts through Prince Enrico di Campofranco. The cellars, located inside the castle, bear witness to a country aristocracy for whom life in the castle went hand in hand with vineyards and the wine-making process. |
Location | : | Caldaro - Bolzano - Alto Adige |
Name | : | D.O.C. Pinot Nero |
Grapes | : | 100% Pinot Nero |
Alcohol | : | 14 % Vol. |
Vinification | : | A 15 day controlled fermentation at no more than 28°C, followed by biological acid degradation, in the high-grade steel tank. Maturation: 50% developed in the high-grade steel tank and 50% in the great wooden barrel |
Tasting notes | : | Middle depth, ruby red colour with a garnet red glimmer; typical clean flavour with an easy “earthy” character; and an aroma of red berries, cherries and spices. An undemanding pleasant full taste with a balanced medium-firm body, the wine is fresh with tasty tannin and with a good reverberation at the end |
