Avamposti Pinot Nero wine is a delicious Piemontese Pinot Nero born of the creative curiosity of winemaker Carlo Manera.

The grapes were cultivated in one vineyard plot with chalk soils, 350m above sea level in the Monferrato hills. After experimenting with earlier vintages to find the best vinification method for Piemontese Pinot Noir Carlo decided to combine the results of two parcels - 50% underwent fermentation in stainless steel with a portion (20%) of whole bunches – whilst the grapes for the remaining 50% were crushed and then fermented in wooden tin. Malolactic fermentation took place in stainless steel. After blending the wine spent 12 months in oak - 75% tronconiques and 25% barriques - before bottling.

Raspberry and sour cherry notes with just a hint of spice. The finish is juicy and slightly savoury with soft, balanced tannins. Try with Ligurian rabbit stew or Piemontese agnolotti al plin.
