Reviewed August 2018This is very aromatic with rose-soap and strawberry aromas that follow through to a medium to full body, firm and silky tannins and a delicious finish.

A very intense nose of dried cherries, cranberries, and dried hibiscus petals makes this wine's aroma so attractive. The body is light, but don't let that fool you, there is a slight grape skin grip that tugs at the bottom lip and speaks to you to pair it with starches like risotto or veal scallopini with mushrooms. Set at a very attractive price, this wine is a no brainer to bring to any party.

Anyone looking for an outstanding Pinot Noir value will definitely want to purchase this latest release from the Torti Family. While there are a handful of top tier Italian Pinot Noirs, they are pricey and can't deliver the bang-for-the-buck that this one does. It's packed with a rounded palate of rich and savory red fruit flavors and a nice touch of acidity that keeps it fresh and lively.

Old world Pinot Noir for a great price? I know, it is hard to believe! We had the Torti Pavia this Sunday at our staff barbeque, and I loved the way it went with the chorizo and the chicken sausage that we were enjoying for appetizers. It is a super refreshing style, with high toned red fruit, light body, but yet a surprising bit of sap in the middle that really appealed to me. This is a must try for anyone who likes lighter style Oregon Pinot Noir- they can do it in Italy too!
Notes
We've been keeping an eye on the Torti family since we met them years ago in Italy and have been fans ever since. Their Pinot Noir is a rare gem and a champion for the varietal in Northern Italy. Crafted in a style that would make many in Oregon and Sonoma jealous at this kind of pricing, it has quickly become a staff and customer favorite at K&L, especially with the terrific new 2017 release.
