Vigna
ROCCOLO
BARTHENAU
Pinot Nero

Cultivated in pergola since 1942, it stands as the oldest Pinot Noir vineyard in Alto Adige. Its soil is defined by the sedimentary rocks of the Werfen Formation – a geological feature unique to Alto Adige viticulture – and by a high presence of vermiculite, one of the rarest and most valuable biostimulating clays in the wine world. The fertile soil and generous sunlight promote perfect grape ripening, while the pergola system softens the impact of direct exposure. Naturally low yields due to the age of the vines result in high aromatic concentration. The Pinot Noir from Vigna Roccolo stands out for its density and a fresh, vibrant acidity that gives it unmistakable elegance.
