La Pineta
While Pinot Nero is capable of producing wines of extraordinary elegance and harmony, it usually has difficulty adapting to conditions in Italy. Here, the challenge was to produce an excellent wine in a land famous for other grape varieties. To succeed, Alessandro Cellai had to approach every operation in the vineyard and the cellar meticulously. The La Pineta beautifully embodies his efforts with finesse and grace.
Tasting Notes
A ruby red color, La Pineta shows delicious notes of bright berry fruit, spice, and a hint of forest floor. On the palate it is well-rounded and accessible, with juicy fruit and delicate structural balance.
Food Pairing
This food-friendly red would make a superb pairing to roast duck, game hens with cranberry stuffing, or chicken fajitas.
