PINOT NOIR OF LOMBARDY WINE TOUR

WINE TOURS

Pinot Noir, the prince of
northern Italian wines

from euro 265/person

If Barolo is the king of the wines, Pinot Noir is the Prince. In Italy we can talk about the presence of Pinot Noir since the second half of the nineteenth century. In fact, Lombardy’s Oltrepò, with almost 3000 hectares of Pinot Noir (about 500 of which are for making red wine), is the most important Italian region for this varietal. The winemakers here produce red, white, rose and sparkling wines.
