Pinot Noir Schweizer grows in areas carefully chosen for
their microclimate and which they have proven to be over the years
ideal for the production of this wine. Individual vineyards are located
at altitudes varying between 350 and 700 meters and include a
great diversity of soils. In fact, loamy soils are found alone
a few meters from soils of different compositions including sandy,
calcareous and gravelly. The systems allow for the production of
very high quality grapes thanks to the high density of plants (from
8,000 to 12,500 per hectare).
The extreme internal selection of very low yield clones allows
a stable and continuous evolution of quality over the years.
The vinification of the grapes takes place in open tanks in which the
fermenting must comes into contact with the skins through
frequent pumping over and punching down. Thanks to these techniques the
coloring substances and aromas contained in the peel come
extracted and passed into wine. At the end of fermentation the wine passes
then from steel into barriques in which fermentation takes place
malolactic and subsequently maturation for a period of
12 months. Following bottling, the wine ages for approximately one year
year in bottle.
The Pinot Noir Schweizer shows a varying ruby red
from pale to intense depending on the vintage. Its bouquet seduces
with complex, layered fruit aromas, such as berries
ripe and cherries, spicy notes of pepper and leather. These aromas
and sensations are also reflected on the palate. Wine in the mouth
thrills with its enveloping tannins, with elegance and finesse,
and for its structure and harmonious body which make it very
long-lived.
Pinot Noir Schweizer is the perfect match for game,
such as pheasant and duck, for braised game, red meats and
mature cheeses.
