LEVIGATO Pinot Nero Marca Trevigiana 2021 IGT - Colli del Soligo

For our Pinot Nero Levigato IGT Marca Trevigiana, the grapes from the vineyards in the municipalities of Arcade, Spresiano, Ponzano Veneto, Povegliano and Villorba are used. The soils, which are of medium texture, enjoy a cool and windy climate, ideal for preserving the fragrance and acidity of the product. The harvest generally takes place in the second half of September. After harvesting, the grapes reach the cellar where fermentation on the skins begins, which lasts about twenty days in steel vats. Immediately after racking, the product ages in barrique and tonneau for about 12 months. Subsequently it is decanted into oak barrels with a capacity of 30 hectoliters where it continues aging for a few months. Pinot Noir is a pretty bizarre grape and it certainly is among the most difficult to cultivate and make wine. Historically it was born in the French region of Burgundy, where they have been cultivating it for over 2,000 years.
