The 2017 Alto Adige Pinot Noir Riserva Anrar opens to spicy dark fruit with crushed flowers, aniseed, blood orange and cured tobacco. This Riserva is stacked tall in terms of aromas, with depth and pretty freshness to boot. This is a mid-weight expression that ushers forth great length, precision and varietal purity. With just 5,000 bottles made, the vines are planted in calcareous-rich soils with layers of reddish clay at a cooling 470 meters above sea level.
