Organic WinePinot Noir Vigne TzeriatVallée D’Aoste DOC
A noble and delicate variety that has been a part of the Valle d’Aosta’s wine heritage since the time when the region belonged to the reign of Burgundy. The best expression fo this wine can be found in our mountains between 600 and 850mt a.s.l where a pronounced thermal excursion guarantees an excellent quality grape to harvest.
100% Pinot Noir grapes make up this structured and balanced wine.
A ruby colour that deepens to garnet with a complex range of scents that linger and balance out the intense red fruits. A dry, balanced palate with good alcohol and long finish.
Potential ageing in the bottle of 10 years
Organic since 2015.

“Puro stile Borgogna, ma con quelle caratteristiche di Pinot Noir montano che lo identificano alla perfezione nei pendii valdostani. Lunga persistenza” Cit.
Giovanni Arrigoni (verified owner) –
Acquisto prenatalizio, annata 2022, notevole a naso, già equilibrato e gradevole, manca un che di morbidezza che acquisterà sicuramente con qualche anno di affinamento in bottiglia, infatti il resto del cartone non lo toccherò più fino almeno al 2025. Gran vino
Meulders pierre –
Top wine.
Nice alternative to French Bourgogne.
Thank you.
