MAZZOLINO PINOT NOIR OLTREPO PAVESE DOC 750 ml

Discover the MAZZOLINO PINOT NOIR OLTREPO PAVESE DOC, a captivating red wine from the rolling hills of Italy's Lombardy region. Nestled on the right bank of the Po River, the Mazzolino Estate occupies a prime spot in Oltrepo Pavese, where the terrain rises toward the Apennines and aligns perfectly with the 45th parallel north. This setting, around the historic hamlet of Mazzolino close to Corvino San Quirico, shapes every aspect of the wine's character.

Since taking ownership in 1980, the Braggiotti family has nurtured 30 hectares of hillside land at the estate, dedicating 20 hectares to vineyards that thrive with grape varieties perfectly matched to the local conditions.

On the palate, this Pinot Noir reveals a full-bodied presence that's remarkably soft and embracing. It lingers with poise, delivering an elegant, graceful conclusion that invites another sip.
