Mezzacorona Castel Firmian Pinot Nero 2024

Italian Pinot Noir is slowly emerging style, facing plenty of competition from the myriad of wonderful native grapes found in that country. From the Trentino region, this is bottled under Diam. Pale red/russet in colour, the nose reveals notes of mushrooms, warm earth, cherries, coffee grinds, animal skins, charcuterie and red fruits, along with a touch of toasty oak. The finish is a little grippy and we see notes of sour plums emerge. A wine of medium length, this should provide pleasure over the next couple of years.
