Mezzacorona Castel Firmian Pinot Nero 2022
- Grape Pinot Nero
- Country Italy
- Region Trentino

- The varietal has found the ideal environment in Trentino, where it is cultivated by the expert hands of Mezzacorona members. It expresses balanced aromas and great elegance. It matures in oak barrels for 6-8 months.
- Wine with ruby red colour, with flecks of garnet. It presents a bouquet of ripe fruits such as wild cherries and strawberries, black currant, and flowery hints of violet. The wine is increasingly enriched by the scent of spices, particularly (black pepper and underbrush, derived from the brief maturation process in oak barrels. Dry with a delicate and elegant tannin structure, balanced by a pleasant acidity and fruity taste.
Mezzacorona was founded in 1904, one of the first growers’ associations in Italy. If it was progressive then, it remains so, with a state-of-the-art winery and meticulous viticulture bringing out the full potential of its 2,400 hectares of vineyards. Those vineyards are to be found on the plains and terraces of the Dolomite foothills, stretching between Lake Garda and the Alps to the north. This is therefore a sizeable and varied resource, and its management by one company carries an important benefit: each vineyard site is planted to the grape variety best suited to its particular characteristics. Were the growers to work individually, they might each hedge their bets by planting a mixture of varieties, some more appropriate than others. But instead we see optimization on a grand scale

| Winery | Teroldego on the Piana Rotaliana, Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay in the Valle dell’Adige, and Merlot and Cabernet in the warmer zone towards Lake Garda. It is then the winery’s task to ensure that the fruit quality is preserved all the way through to the bottle; aided by the latest equipment, it achieves this with impressive consistency, with the entry-level varietal wines and the small parcels of Riserva receiving equal attention. Add to this a longstanding adherence to sustainability and green innovation, and you have a company that represents the epitome of responsibility at every level – environmental, oenological and social. |
