Established in 1993 by Tino Colla (brother of the legendry Beppe Colla) and his niece Federica, Poderi Colla is very much a family affair and continues the Colla family's three centuries of winemaking heritage in northern Italy. Tino and Federica believe in a non-interventionist approach to winemaking, to give each wine a unique expression of site and vintage, and they take sustainability and the environment as seriously as their wines. The wines are balanced, rich and complex.
Tino Colla studied in Burgundy in the late 60s and fell in love with Pinot Noir. Upon returning to Piemonte, French cuttings of the vine were planted on 2.5ha of land that makes up part of Poderi Colla's estate. From the mid-90's the family have been ageing the wine carefully in oak. The result is this fine and complex red - a classically-styled Pinot Noir, but true to its Piemontese roots.
Campo Romano Pinot Nero wine has a complex, savoury nose with a lively bouquet of raspberries, strawberries and a hint of white pepper. The palate has a very appealing, gentle, silky texture with ripe red fruit, fresh acidity and a hint of oak - lifted with bright, delicate strawberry characters on the finish. An elegant and complex expression of Pinot Noir - classically European with complex savoury notes giving a noticeably Piemontese accent.
Match with medium-bodied meat dishes, game and pasta (particularly agnolotti).
