It appears ruby red, offering a \u003cstrong\u003ebroad fruity profile\u003c\/strong\u003e with notes of jam, black cherry and small red fruits. A young and pleasantly drinkable version, it has both structure and character. On the palate it is clean, thanks to \u003cstrong\u003ematuration in steel\u003c\/strong\u003e which preserves its aromatic integrity. Ideal at sixteen degrees, it pairs well with a \u003cstrong\u003emushroom risotto\u003c\/strong\u003e, grilled meats or medium-aged cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes come from the first hilly belt of Torricella Verzate and Oliva Gessi. The plots, facing south-west on \u003cstrong\u003eclay-limestone soils\u003c\/strong\u003e, ensure excellent ripening. The twenty-year-old Guyot-trained vines offer low yields to concentrate the aromas. The \u003cstrong\u003epermanent grassing\u003c\/strong\u003e balances the canopy and roots. This management promotes the \u003cstrong\u003eprotection of the ecosystem\u003c\/strong\u003e, using low-impact methods to preserve the vitality of the land.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe production process begins in the vineyard with a double thinning after veraison for optimal ripening. The \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e takes place in mid-September. In the winery, the destemmed grapes undergo cold pre-maceration and alcoholic fermentation. The racking extracts the \u003cstrong\u003efree-run wine\u003c\/strong\u003e, which completes malolactic fermentation. Maturation continues for months in \u003cstrong\u003esteel tanks\u003c\/strong\u003e, preserving the olfactory components. Finally, the wine is stabilised and microfiltered for maximum clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003ePinot Nero Junior\u003c\/strong\u003e represents the most accessible side of the Monsupello winery, founded in 1893. Considered the younger sibling of the renowned “3309”, it is produced from the same Lombard vineyards to offer excellent drinkability throughout a meal, while maintaining its finesse. This \u003cstrong\u003eedition\u003c\/strong\u003e of around 4,500 bottles comes from twenty-year-old vines cultivated with permanent grassing. Attention to detail continues with careful \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvesting\u003c\/strong\u003e in crates in mid-September, resulting in a structured, genuine and elegant sip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Monsupello","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45035586289835,"sku":"56204","price":14.5,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/monsupello-pinot-nero-junior-2024_56204_1_387b116f-5434-401f-b75c-5845c051e251.webp?v=1773764280","url":"https:\/\/xtriwine.com\/en-ch\/products\/monsupello-pinot-nero-junior-2024","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
