Pinot Nero joins ITALIA can range
Fortunate to have been born in the great city of Liverpool and to fall into the world of wine. More than 20 years later I'm Boutinot's marketing manager for much of Europe (mostly Italy and Spain) and more than content with my compact family, including 3 cats (sadly just the 11 legs) and a 1969 'Dark Star' (no, not a wine!)
Following the successful launch of three canned wines last year, Araldica have now extended the range further with the addition of a canned red, again under Adria Vini’s ‘Italia’ label.
Joining the first three wines (Pinot Grigio, Pinot Grigio Rosé and Moscato) is a 100% Pinot Nero from the 2022 vintage:
Italia Pinot Nero (100% Pinot Nero) – this juicy and approachable Pinot Nero has delicate berry aromas, appealing raspberry and strawberry fruit, gentle tannins and a fresh finish. Can be enjoyed on its own, and served lightly chilled. Or match with summer salads, light pasta dishes, and all manner of picnic and party food.
Italia Moscato (100% Moscato Bianco) – a lightly sparkling and really more-ish white – bright and appealing with sweet and juicy ripe peachy fruit, and a delicate fizz, balanced by lovely citrus acidity.
At only 5% alcohol it’s perfect for those looking for lower alcohol options, or prefer a wine with a slightly sweeter profile (115g/l residual sugar).
Italia Pinot Grigio (85% Pinot Grigio, 15% Chardonnay) – a crisp and refreshing white, the inclusion of 15% Chardonnay grapes gives a boost of zesty citrus characters to the lightly honeyed fruit.
Italia Pinot Grigio Rosé (85% Pinot Grigio, 11% Barbera, 4% Pinot Nero) – the Pinot Grigio grapes are crushed together with a portion of Barbera and Pinot Nero to give an attractive pale pink colour. A dry, fresh and fruity rosé with delicate red berry characters.
All four wines are IGT Provincia di Pavia, 25cl cans packaged in cases of 24 – these are ideal single-serves (or very responsibly shared with a friend), incredibly convenient, light, quick to chill, taste great, and are competitively-priced to boot. Suitable for vegans too.
The cans are made from 100% recyclable aluminium, and wine transportation in can is better for the environment (data shows a typical truck can carry 2.5 times more wine in can, helping to reduce CO2 emissions in the supply chain) – so you needn’t feel too guilty as you enjoy them!
All four cans are now available to order.
