2015 Castello di Luzzano Umore Nero Pinot Nero, Lombardy

The word "umore" ("humour") has various meanigs: it is not just a state of mind but also the juice that seeps from grape berries. the essence of "UMORE NERO" "black humour" has been encapsulated in the cartoon-like speech-bubble on its label: the expression of an idea that formed in someone's head. Both the name and the label reflect that this is anything but a classic-style Pinot Noir. Bright ruby in tone, its spirit is as young and irreverent as its name, and intense aromas of roses precede a palate of great elegance. A delicious and different style of Pinot Noir from the Lombardy region of northern Italy. The wines sees no oak, the better to show off its floral and red fruit style.
