Pinot noir, or pinot Nero in Italian, is mostly grown in the Northern Area of Italy. Those regions are called Trentino and Alto Adige (South Tyrol, Süd Tirol in German). Its a montainous area, with altitude providing the cool weather needed as well as sun exposure needed to grow a good pinot noir.
Pinot noir and books

Pinot noir from China
« Le sixième élément » from Chateau Chanson in Ningxia province, China. Nice surprise from an upcoming wine country
Who said Pinot Noir is only for red wines?
Champagne from Cote des Bar is made from Pinot noir and called Blanc de Noir. Those Champagne tend to be more on the fruity and wine side.
One of the best is Noir d’Eulalie, from my friend Edouard Duval
Pinot noir inspires art.
Very rare bottle of Pinot Noir with painted label by local artiste JF Vossot for Maison Ambroise in Nuits-Saint-Georges… 1991 was just to drink in 2022
Yorkshire Pinot Noir
Having lived in Yorkshire a few years ago I still can’t believe that they grow Pinot Noir there… though it’s definitely cold enough. Definitely looking forward to try one day this pinot noir from Yorkshire Heart.
Pinot noir’s best friend
Époisses from Berthaut, great with pinot noir from Bourgogne… or anywhere else.

Mastei Vernacoli Pinot Nero
Probably my first Pinot Noir from Italy. Called Pinot Nero it is mostly grown in Northern Italy needing the cool evenings from the altitude.
Light and easy. Will have to try more of those
