Pomino Pinot Nero 2024 Pomino

A red wine from the Pomino estate, made from Pinot Nero and matured for about 12 months in barrique. The estate sits high in the Apennines east of Florence, above 700 metres, in a cool, breezy microclimate; Pinot Nero was introduced there in 1855. The wine is suited to a full meal and pairs with ragù-based first courses such as lasagne, braised dishes and stews. In the glass it is ruby red, bright and clear. The nose is complex and elegant, with intense forest fruit, blackcurrant and raspberry, and a balsamic mint note. The finish brings leather with toasted chocolate and coffee. The tannin is silky and vibrant, with a notable correspondence between aroma and palate, and the finish is tasty and persistent.
