JNOIR
Pinot Noir from Junior Vineyards
Pinot Noir was introduced to the hills of FOCARA around 1810, during the Napoleonic Empire. The cold climate and calcareous sandstone soil of this cliff on the Adriatic Sea were considered by the French administration as ideal conditions for cultivating this fine variety. The Mancini family has preserved and selected the original clones over five generations of winemakers, specializing in the production of premium Pinot Noir.
JNOIR Pinot Noir – the latest red Pinot Noir from Fattoria Mancini.
Produced exclusively from grapes from the new vineyards, this wine is made with shorter macerations compared to other Focara wines. This vinification method results in a Pinot Noir with lighter extraction and exceptional drinkability. JNoir is best served at relatively low temperatures and pairs easily with seafood dishes.
