More questions
The Pinot Nero 2021 from Weingut Gottardi Mazzon presents itself as a red of fine character. In the glass it shows a clear ruby colour and an aromatic profile that favors small red fruits like raspberry and cherry, accompanied by floral hints and touches of undergrowth and subtle mineral notes. The overall impression is discreet and measured, without excessive aromatics. Light spicy notes are also perceptible, adding to the complexity without overburdening the bouquet.
On the palate it reveals a balance of freshness and gentle tannic structure: the entry is sleek, the texture fluid and the body medium-light, allowing for a pleasant drinking experience. The finish is clean, with fruity recalls and a slight saline note. It suits everyday dishes — cold cuts, white meats, mushroom preparations and lightly aged cheeses — and is best served around 14–16°C. It is appreciated for its immediacy and versatility and is also well suited to informal convivial occasions.

The story
The Gottardi family, originally involved in the wine trade in Innsbruck, purchased the vineyards in Mazzon in 1986. Over the years the vines were replanted and the winery renovated: the first wine produced in the renewed facility dates back to 1995. Chardonnay and Gewürztraminer were also cultivated in the past, but since 2010 the estate has focused exclusively on Pinot Noir. Management has remained family-run: after the death of the founder Bruno and a period under Alexander’s leadership, since May 2022 the winery has been led by Elisabeth Gottardi.
Production philosophy
Utmost attention to Pinot Noir and the terroir: meticulous winemaking to express the elegance and identity of Mazzon, with a careful selection of barriques and oak aging for the flagship wines.
Terroir and vineyards
Mazzon, a west-facing hill in southern South Tyrol; its microclimate — warm days and cool nights — is considered ideal for Pinot Noir.
