Pinot Nero dell'Oltrepò Pavese represents a wine excellence of Lombardy, coming from a region that boasts Italy's most extensive zone dedicated to this grape variety. The Oltrepò, located in the province of Pavia, stands out for pedoclimatic conditions particularly favorable to Pinot Nero cultivation, thanks to the influence of the Po river and the hilly conformation of the territory.
Pinot Nero dell'Oltrepò can be made in two complementary ways: as a still wine, which fully expresses varietal characteristics with red fruit notes and elegant structure, or as a sparkling wine or base for Metodo Classico, where natural bubbles enhance freshness and aromatic complexity. In both cases, the result is a wine of remarkable finesse, with color ranging from ruby red to light garnet depending on the winemaking technique.
At the table, still Pinot Nero pairs with medium-intensity red meats, braised poultry and aged cheeses; the sparkling versions are ideal as an aperitif or to celebrate special moments. The versatility of this wine makes it a gastronomic companion particularly appreciated in contemporary Italian cuisine.
