Elio Ottin, Valle d'Aosta Pinot Noir, 2022

Valle d'Aosta, Italy

£180.00
Purchase Option

The red grapes in the area are mainly nebbiolo, dolcetto and moscato, but some ethereal and brilliant pinot noir is produced, and I am proud to show the best example. This Pinot Noir is a fine expression of high-altitude winemaking from the Aosta Valley in northwest Italy.

From Elio Ottin: “My father loved Pinot Noir. It was rare in those days to make mono-varietal wine from this grape as it meant diverging from classic Valdostan grapes. Despite this, he loved the wine and sold a number of his bottles to local restaurants. This is where my passion springs from...him."

The vineyard describes the wine better than I ever can: “Mountain terrain, salt and a charge of aroma, a surprising overture of flavour accompanied by a classic bouquet of moss and earth. Deep and sensual, shifting between fruit and mineral notes. Leather, blood orange, dewy early-morning woodlands. The aftertaste scent offers intense emotions of femininity and charisma.” — Perfect. 

The Ottin family have a deep connection with the land in the Aosta Valley through livestock and farming. Cultivating grapes in the late 1980s and selling his grapes, Elio Ottin began bottling his own wine in 2007, crafting unique wines reflecting the character of the Aosta Valley, where the wines benefits from the high altitude and sunny slopes with sea winds for freshness and salinity. The vines are grown on pergolas and the grapes here produce medium bodied, aromatic wines.
