In Italy, Pinot Noir is known as Pinot Nero. In Austria it's Blauburgunder. This one is Austrian on the front label and Italian on the back. Mezzan has the cool-climate aromas of raspberry and spice enveloping a tart flavor profile and robust acidity. It's the earthiness that reveals its true Italian roots, with that loamy darkness that is unique to Italian reds. Traces of allspice and nutmeg make this a great holiday wine.

Light body for this Lake of Caldaro based Pinot Noir, Südtirol. Perfect color and transparency, still light at taste but hot sensations related to alcohol. Very good.

2013. Light body, tending towards brick color, tart raspberries and spice. Nice acidity, but still easy drinking.

Initial strong alcohol gives way to smoke and spice nose. Mineral almost peaty undercurrent to dark fruit plum. Grippy with long finish with nice acidity. A nice easily enjoyed wine

Bel pinot nero equilibrato e persistente, ottimo con la carne alla brace
