Tasting Kit – Italian Pinot Noir

What is a tasting kit?

Tasting kit: each wine has its characteristics and nuances. Even wines made from the same grapes differ on the palate because many factors influence wine. Climatic factors include the vineyard’s location, the climate, the amount of rain fallen or drought and so on. Then, each winery works differently, with different winemaking times, ageing times, etc.

This is why we thought of creating tasting packages that allow you to discover these differences and, why not, will help you understand which is your favourite wine.

It can also be a fun-tasting night to do with friends.

This is the Italian Pinot Noir kit. We have selected one from Friuli Venezia Giulia, one from Valle d’Aosta and one from Trentino Alto Adige.
