Altezza Totino Estate Pinot Noir 2024 Adelaide Hills 750mL

A graceful and refreshing expression of Pinot Noir, this high-altitude wine offers delicate aromatics and a refined, understated profile. Ripe dark berries and cherry lead the nose, while layers of spice, briar, and earthy notes add complexity. Fine, powdery tannins and juicy acidity provide structure, keeping the wine elegant and light on its feet.

Region: Adelaide Hills, South Australia (from a high-altitude vineyard block at 423 meters above sea level in Paracombe).

Winemaking: Handpicked fruit, small-batch fermented with whole-bunch complexity, and matured in fine French oak.

Tasting Notes: Fresh berry flavours, whole-bunch spice, fine powdery tannins, and bright acidity.

Best Food Pairings:

Roast Poultry: Crispy-skinned roast chicken, duck, or quail complement the wine's vibrant red fruit notes and bright acidity.

Mushroom Dishes: Wild mushroom risotto, mushroom tarts, or sautéed porcini match the earthy, savory depth of the Adelaide Hills fruit.

Pork and Veal: Pan-roasted pork tenderloin or lightly spiced pork chops balance the wine's velvety texture.

Seafood: Seared salmon or grilled tuna cut through the wine's light structure and delicate tannins.
Soft Cheeses: Creamy, bloomy-rind cheeses like Brie or Camembert highlight the wine's freshness.
