Pinot Nero Revei®
D.O.P.
Pinot Noir Revei, that, in the local Patois dialect, means clock and is linked to the story of the Medieval Turret that dominates our vineyard in Aymavilles. This wine originates from here and the Turret was home to a hermit clockmaker, custodian of time, that nowdays reminds us of its importance and of our mortality. Great wisdom and patience are necessary to create this Revei wine, the right time for the ripening of the Pinot Noir and the patience for its ageing. Here time expands to consent full ripening of the grape, fully expressing its alpine potential. Care and mastery are required, for its ageing in our winery.
