Pinot Noir steps in right here, with exactly the same overall versatility the little black dress has gained over time in women’s wardrobe. And its pleasentness is directly proportional to the care it has received while still on the vine, quite like the wearability of a garment which really depends on the craftmanship of whom has cut and sewn it.

Pinot Noir is the 10th most planted grape variety in the world and its following counts a gigantic number of wine enthusiasts (if it only could have an Instagram account…!). Highly demanding if not whimsical at times, it is often referred to as the enfant terrible among his equally noble colleagues but can surprisingly express a myriad of sophisticated hues when poured in the glass. No wonder then, its charm has conquered the world spreading from France, where the first vines of this variety were harvested some two thousand years ago – and this makes it about 1,000 years older than Cabernet Sauvignon! - before taking over the rest of Europe, America and in a more recent perspective Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.

Its personality grants it the spotlight anyway.
