Description
History
The text speaks of Marco Buvoli, a wine lover who has decided to devote himself to the production of high quality wine, especially Pinot Noir. He has created his own small cellar, the Opificio, which he calls a creative laboratory, where he experiments with various winemaking techniques to create complex and refined wines. Since 2009, the Opificio has been producing strictly classic method sparkling wines, both white and rosé, which are left to rest on the lees for many years to develop tertiary aromas and a very fine perlage. Over the years, Marco has experimented a lot and today he also produces a pure red Pinot Noir. The Opificio also produces small batches of wines, often a few hundred bottles, which communicate the creative flair of a Pinot Noir craftsman and artist. In the future, the Opificio will also produce red CRU wines, produced with Pinot Noir grapes from different sites.
Grapes used
Pinot Noir 100%
Production method
At the end of fermentation, after an initial racking, the wine was immediately placed in second and third passage barriques for aging for about a year, bottled at the beginning of 2019 after a couple of months of natural decanting without fining.
The bottles rest for almost 3 years before being marketed.
Alcohol content
13%
Tasting notes
Ruby red, notes of creme de cassis, red currant, red tarocco orange, followed by dried violet, nutmeg, black pepper and roasted coffee, with good tertiary notes. On the palate it is elegant and with a citric freshness; a silky tannin with a certain softness; all enriched by the return of fruit and spices.
Possible combinations
Try it with semi-mature cheeses, cured meats and cold cuts, mountain first courses, tagliatelle with truffles, venison ragù, wild boar.
