Von Blumen, the renowned winery, embodies passion, quality, and artisanal winemaking. Located in the enchanting Alto Adige region of Northern Italy, the winery cherishes a rich tradition and heritage in the wine world. Roberta, Cristina, and Giuseppe Fugatti enthusiastically founded Von Blumen in 2013. Inspired by the northern Alto Adige region, they embraced the challenge of creating wines of exceptional quality.
The grapes for this wine are carefully hand-picked from the vineyards surrounding Pochi di Salorno, at an average altitude of 514 meters. The unique terroir and climatic conditions of this region give the grapes a special character. After gently crushing and destemming the grapes, the juice undergoes controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks. During this process, the skins remain in contact with the juice, contributing to the wine's rich color and intense flavor. To further enhance flavor and color extraction, the wine is pumped over daily. After fermentation, the Von Blumen 514 Blauburgunder Pinot Nero is allowed to mature and develop in large wooden barrels. This allows for a subtle integration of oak notes and gives the wine complexity and structure.
Von Blumen 514 Blauburgunder Pinot Nero is a wine that immediately captivates with its bright, translucent ruby red color. Upon tasting, the aromas of juicy cherries, ripe raspberries, and seductive roses greet you. The nose is intense and wonderfully fragrant. The first sip greets you with an explosion of fruitiness. The flavors of ripe cherries and juicy raspberries dominate, accompanied by subtle floral notes that give the wine elegance. The juicy acidity provides a lively freshness, and the light spiciness adds an interesting complexity.
