St. Michael-Eppan Pinot Noir Alto Adige DOC

Some 340 winemaking families joined forces in 1907 to create St. Michael-Eppan Winery, home to South Tyrol’s largest wine-growing municipality, Eppan.
Cellar Master Hans Terzer’s attaches the utmost importance to vinifying top wines that are clear, pure in tone and true to their varietal characteristics.

Pinot Noir (Pinot Nero or Blauburgunder) is one of the most cherished and most demanding of all red wines. It cannot grow everywhere, however, and is very demanding in terms of vineyard and vinification alike.
This Pinot Noir develops to its full potential at the cool yet sunnny vineyard sites of Appiano and Caldaro, yielding a structured wine with elegant fullness that is strikingly similar to the Burgundian paragons.
