Description

The Garda Pinot Nero DOC from the Crocevento winery, produced by Monte Zovo, represents an elegant and refined expression of the Pinot Nero grape variety, cultivated in the fertile lands surrounding Lake Garda. This wine is packaged in a Magnum format, perfect for wine enthusiasts looking to preserve it or enjoy it on special occasions. It is presented in a prestigious wooden case that enhances its value and uniqueness.

The color of the Garda Pinot Nero is typically delicate ruby, with reflections that tend towards garnet with aging. On the nose, the bouquet opens with notes of fresh red fruits like cherry and wild strawberry, enriched by floral nuances of violet and a light touch of sweet spices.

On the palate, the wine offers a medium body while maintaining a balanced and harmonious structure. The tannins are soft and well-integrated, which, along with the right acidity, lead to a pleasantly persistent finish. The olfactory sensations return in the mouth, creating a complex and gratifying tasting experience.

This Pinot Nero pairs excellently with white meat dishes, such as roast turkey, or dishes based on mushrooms and truffles. It is also an ideal companion for intimate evenings or as a gift for fine wine enthusiasts.

The magnum in a wooden case makes this wine an ideal gift for collectors and enthusiasts, ensuring excellent wine evolution over time if stored under optimal conditions. A true gem to discover and appreciate, highlighting the skill and passion of the Monte Zovo winery in producing high-quality wines.
