Sacchetto Pinot Nero Trevenezie

Pinot Nero is the Italian equivalent of the well-known Pinot Noir from Burgundy. So expect a fresh, complex wine with pleasant acidity. Our expectations were met the moment we popped the bottle open: bursting with red fruit. Freshly picked raspberries. A finish of sour cherry. Fruity without being boring. That's Sacchetto Pinot Nero Trevenezie.

The wines of Sacchetto

Sacchetto wines have a long and impressive history. It all began a century ago, in the 1920s. Businessman Sisto Sacchetto founded a wine trading house in Trebaseleghe, in the Veneto province. For years, the region's finest wines reached this trading house, and the Sacchetto family handled their distribution. This contributed to the great success of Veneto wines. In the 1980s, Sisto's son, Filiberto Sacchetto, decided to start producing wines as well. From the very first harvest, this was a resounding success, and Sacchetto wines traveled the world. Their sparkling wines were particularly successful initially. However, the winery now profiles itself as a quality producer of impressive still wines.
