THE FACES OF PINOT NOIR

The origin of Pinot Noir can be traced back to the first centuries of our era, in fact it belongs to a large group of very ancient vines, born of natural sowing and genetic mutations. It seems from recent analysis that his parents are the Traminer and an ancestral form of Pinot. Originally from France, it is a grape of extreme difficulty both in the agricultural field, because it prefers clayey-calcareous soils with temperate climates and good temperature range, and high planting density, and in the oenological one, where it requires a lot of attention from the winemaker. during vinification and aging. There are two types: the first, much more productive, is grown in Champagne, and uses for the production of the famous wine with bubbles, the second, grown in Burgundy, is indicated for red wines. It owes its fame to the great and famous red wines of Burgundy, which have become a symbol of elegant and fine wines and then imitated all over the world. It is also cultivated in Jura, Loire, Savoy and Alsace. In the rest of the world it is found in Germany, Switzerland, Hungary, Romania, Croatia, Canada, Argentina, California, Chile, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. It has been introduced in Italy in very remote times, and is now cultivated in almost each region of northern Italy, where it is used in Franciacorta, Oltrepò Pavese and Trentino to produce sparkling wine bases, but also on the Umbrian and Tuscan slopes where interesting red wines are obtained.
