In the glass, it reveals a ruby hue, hinting at a \u003cstrong\u003ecomplex aromatic profile\u003c\/strong\u003e that combines notes of ripe wild berries and cherries with hints of pepper and leather. On the palate, it stands out for its \u003cstrong\u003eenveloping tannins\u003c\/strong\u003e and a harmonious structure that promotes longevity. Its intrinsic elegance makes it ideal to accompany red meats, game, and mature cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere does it come from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes destined for this wine grow in \u003cstrong\u003ehigh-altitude vineyards\u003c\/strong\u003e situated between 350 and 700 metres above sea level. This altitude, combined with \u003cstrong\u003esilty soils\u003c\/strong\u003e with sandy and calcareous infiltrations, encourages an excellent expression of the grape variety. Franz Haas respects the natural inclinations of the landscape to achieve superior quality. Thanks to low yields and environmental factors, the bunches faithfully reflect their origin, ensuring a measured \u003cstrong\u003estructural complexity\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow is it produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe process begins with \u003cstrong\u003evinification in open vats\u003c\/strong\u003e, where the must remains in constant contact with the skins. Extractive techniques such as pumping over and punching down allow the acquisition of colour and aromatic substances. After a period in steel, the wine rests in small barrels, where it completes \u003cstrong\u003emalolactic fermentation\u003c\/strong\u003e. The process continues with \u003cstrong\u003ematuration in barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e for twelve months, which is essential for stabilising the body. A further year of ageing completes the production cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1880, the Franz Haas winery has passed down the passion of seven generations to express the authentic character of Alto Adige. The \u003cstrong\u003ePinot Nero Schweizer 2022\u003c\/strong\u003e is produced at altitudes between 350 and 700 metres, on silty, calcareous and gravelly soils that give it great complexity. Under the expert guidance of oenologist Stefano Tiefenthaler, the wine matures in barriques before completing its journey with a \u003cstrong\u003e12-month bottle ageing\u003c\/strong\u003e.
