Pinot Noir “Villa Schmid” IGT from the Schmid Oberrautner winery comes from vineyards located around Bolzano in South Tyrol. The vines are cultivated using trellis training systems, and the grapes are harvested by hand to ensure careful selection of the fruit. After harvest, the grapes are first vinified in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged partly in barriques and traditional wooden barrels, developing additional structure and aromatic complexity. The designation “Villa Schmid” represents a special line of the winery that combines stainless steel fermentation with ageing in wood. Pinot Noir is considered one of the world’s most noble red grape varieties and thrives particularly well in South Tyrol. In the alpine vineyards of the region it produces elegant wines with refined structure, fresh acidity and expressive fruit. In the glass the wine shows a ruby-red colour. The nose reveals fruity aromas of cherry and wild berries, which continue on the palate. On the palate the wine is balanced with medium body, fine structure and a harmonious finish that highlights the elegant character of Pinot Noir.
