WINE DESCRIPTION

Ca' Donini Pinot Noir Provinca di Pavia is a simple, soft and approachable dry red wine hailing from the Province of Pavia, located in Lombardy, northern Italy. After harvesting, the grapes are crushed and fermented in temperature-controlled inert vessels with a short period of skin contact to create a softly tannic wine. The wine is bottled shortly after completing the fermentation to retain freshness and delicacy of flavor. The resulting wine can be served lightly-chilled and is best enjoyed in its youth.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

Ca' Donini Pinot Noir Provinca di Pavia has a pale ruby color on pouring, hinting at a delicate, lightly extracted wine.On the nose, the wine is immediately open and expressive with notes of ripe red berries, such as cherries, plums and raspberries. The palate is soft and supple, with a light to medium body and a round texture. The wine offers a good balance of fruit flavors and round acidity. The wine is simple and fruit-focused with a relatively short, juicy finish that makes for an easy-drinking and approachable wine.

ORIGINS

Winery: Ca' Donini

Region: Lombardy

Lombardy is a region in the north of Italy, located in the foothills of the Alps. With a long history of winemaking, Lombardy is one of the most prolific wine regions in Italy, producing a wide range of styles from sparkling to still wines. The history of winemaking in Lombardy dates back to the Roman Empire, when the region was known as Cisalpine Gaul. During this period, the Romans planted vineyards and developed winemaking techniques that are still used today. In the Middle Ages, Lombardy was an important center of winemaking, with many monasteries producing wine for religious ceremonies. In the 19th century, Lombardy was one of the first regions in Italy to embrace modern winemaking techniques, such as the use of oak barrels and the introduction of new grape varieties.
