GOLD LABEL
PINOT NOIR VENETO

About this Selection:
Pinot Noir is a red wine grape derived from the French words for "pine" and "black" and aptly named for its dark purple pinecone-shaped clusters of fruit. San Giuseppe Pinot Noir Veneto is a lovely varietal with structure and finesse, giving rise to its extreme popularity in the U.S. Its complex taste makes it the wine of choice to complement most meat dishes.

The Grapes:
San Giuseppe uses 100% Pinot Noir grapes grown in rows in the Veneto region of Italy, a prime grape-growing location. Harvested in August, the grapes are then carefully taken through the vinification process, producing a refined wine with a harmonic and pleasant taste.

Winemaker Notes:
San Giuseppe Pinot Noir is made with care and a nod to Italy's great wine-making tradition. The result is a red wine that reaches a fine balance between soft and subtle and complex and bold, very much in the Burgundian style.

Tasting Notes:
A deep red color and pleasant aroma are offset by a dry, harmonic blend of black cherry with a touch of vanilla that stays on the tongue to produce a pleasant aftertaste. San Giuseppe Pinot Noir is both elegant and approachable. It is best when served between 64-68° F.
