Marchesi Pancrazi Pinot Noir Riserva Toscana “Vigna Baragazza” IGT
Deep ruby red color. The nose has complex aromas, ranging from hints of ripe black fruit to hints of leather, pepper and undergrowth, leaving space to notes of cherry, herbs and licorice. In the mouth it is soft and warm, with lively tannins and a balanced acidity. The finish is long, pleasant, with an aftertaste of black cherry and leather.
Marchesi Pancrazi’s philosophy is to produce distinguished Italian Pinot Noirs
