Alcohol: 11%
Grape(s): 100% Pinot Nero
Location: Veneto, Italy
Tasting Notes: Opens with bright red‑fruit aromas of cherry, raspberry, and strawberry, deepened by hints of cranberry and pomegranate that add a tart, lively edge. Subtle layers of clove and cinnamon bring gentle spice, while earthy undertones of forest floor and mushroom give the wine a grounded, savory dimension. On the palate, it shows a silky texture with gentle tannins, carried by a light‑to‑medium body and softer acidity that make it smooth and approachable. The structure remains noticeable but delicate, allowing the wine’s layered and complex character to unfold gradually with each sip.
The Domain: Luigi e Lucina is a family-owned winery located in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region of Italy. The winery is named after Luigi da Porto and Lucina Savorgnan, the real-life couple believed to have inspired Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet". The winery has been producing wines since 1928 and is known for its crisp, aromatic whites, particularly Pinot Grigio.
The vineyards are situated close to the Adriatic Sea, benefiting from the cooling breezes and clay soils that are ideal for growing a variety of grapes, including Pinot Grigio, Refosco, Friulano, and more.
