Dornach – 8 – Pinot Nero – 2017

For Pinot Noir lovers this is as good as it gets. A sublime expression of site and soils. 60% whole berry and 40% whole bunch, no selected yeasts, no clarification, no stabilization. Pure mountain Pinot Noir. Single vineyard sourced and aged in a combination of large oak casks and used barrique. A Desert Island wine if there ever was one.

The true embodiment of living in harmony with nature can be found at Dornach. Patrick Uccelli, his wife Karoline, and their three young children farm the terraced vineyards above Salorno originally planted by his family in 1836.

Dornach Wines

The ideals of biodynamicsare beautifully rendered here where grapes, other fruits, vegetables, grains, bees and livestock all exist harmoniously creating a closed ecosystem with amazing biodiversity. Dornach’s Pinot Blanc and Pinot Nero burst with varietal and regional character, pure expressions of site and personality.

Credentials
