TASTING NOTES

Production

South Tyrol Pinot Noir Barthenau Vigna Sant'Urbano is made from grapes harvested and selected by hand, and placed in small crates to keep the berries intact. 75% of the grapes are destemmed, whilst the remaining 25% are left whole for barrel fermentation. There is then a day of maceration, followed by fermentation for approximately 10 days, with the skins in constant contact with the must. Ageing in wood takes place in small French oak barrels for the first 12 months, after which the contents of the various barriques are blended into a single large oak cask, where the wine matures for a further 8 months. After bottling, the wine rests in the bottle for eight months in the cellars of the Barthenau estate before being released for sale.

Organoleptic Characteristics

In the glass, it displays a deep ruby red colour, from which an elegant bouquet of red forest fruits and sweet spices emerges, followed by a subtle hint of vanilla. On the palate, it is silky, almost caressing, in keeping with the tradition of great Pinot Noirs, characterised by perfectly integrated tannins and an uncommon aromatic concentration of small red fruits.

Occasion and Pairing

A perfect bottle for a special occasion, to be paired with red meat or game, as well as a selection of mild cheeses that complement the wine’s elegance.

Serving Temperature

To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a temperature of 16–18°C.

THE WINERY

Hofstatter

The Hofstatter Winery is a historical symbol of Alto Adige, guarded by the imposing walls of a 16th century building in the province of Bolzano. The Hofstatter vineyards stretch across the eastern and western sides of the Etschtal, finding a home on soils with different characteristics and microclimates. It was precisely because of this peculiarity that in 1987, for the first time in this region, they were able to introduce the designation “Vigna” for seven of their wines. Heir to an ancient family of winegrowers, Martin Foradori continues to pursue Hofstatter's core objective to this day: to harmonise the centuries-old, unique tradition of their land with an eye for innovation. In fact, the immense heritage of the Hofstatter estate has not precluded the use of modern technology to create a state-of-the-art winery, where new, low-energy concrete barrels are housed. The exceptional finesse of Hofstatter wines confirms that this goal is achieved year after year, yielding sublime examples of both whites, such as the renowned Gewürztraminer, and reds, such as Pinot Noir, that are recognised even beyond Italian borders. Name and address of producer/distributor: Hofstatter - Rathausplatz 7 - 39040 Tramin BZ. Products from this winery should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
