Tenuta Il Bosco Pinot Nero Poggio Pelato 2017
An ancient name, which comes to life from ancient testimonies: Poggio Pelato identifies a vineyard that due to its microclimate and the conformation of the soil enhances the varietal characteristics of Pinot Nero, which finds here a favorable asylum. Respect in the vineyard and attention in the wine making cellar are the tools leading to this wine, explicit already in its light yet bright ruby color and featuring intense, precise and defined aromas of currants, rhubarb and a thin dark spice. The sip explodes in a full richness, it is vast and expressive, bright with fruity notes and fresh with a vibrant finish featuring the typical acidity of the vine.
