Product Notes

Akin to a seductive dance, Tenuta J. Hofstätter Mazon Riserva Pinot Nero envokes an enrapturing experience. This German-Italian wine showcases a harmonious balance between potency and elegance, with mesmerising notes of wild berries, plum, and spice. It's matured in oak barrels, lending a velvety texture and refined finish. Sporting a deep, rich ruby hue, the wine brilliantly bridges the gap between tradition and innovation. Each sip unravels a layered complexity which demands attention. Perfect for sipping on a cool evening, it pairs wonderfully with red meats and hearty stews, enhancing its standing as an exceptional expression of Pinot Nero.

Tasting Notes

In colour it is deep ruby-garnet with a typical aroma of undergrowth, small berry fruits and black cherry – mellow, sweet and inviting. On the palate it is warm, harmonious and well-knit, round and rich in complexities, firm though elegant, broad and velvety, enveloping with the grace and refinement of a truly international wine which will become even more impressive after a further one to two years in bottle.

About the Winery

Tenuta J. Hofstätter

Tenuta J. Hofstätter is an exceptional winery, nestling in the heart of Italy's northern Alto Adige region. Famous for its bespoke and diverse range of wines, this charming winery boasts over a century of rich history and is widely respected for the calibre of its produce.

The winery was founded in the 1900s by Joseph Hofstätter, a passionate vintner who grew to be an influential figure in the area. Over the years, he developed the winery into a distinguished establishment, leaving an indelible imprint on the landscape of Italian viticulture. Today, the business is expertly managed by the fourth-generation descendants of Hofstätter, who continue to uphold the commitment to quality, authenticity, and innovation that their progenitor embodied.

Tenuta J. Hofstätter harnesses the unique terroir of the Alto Adige - a region characterised by its striking contrasts between Mediterranean and alpine climates. The winery owns vineyards across various microclimates and altitudes, which in turn, imparts unique characteristics to each bottle of wine produced. Its vast portfolio includes a stunning variety of red and white wines; including, but not limited to, Pinot Noir, Gewürztraminer, and Lagrein.

The riverside Villa Barthenau, a historic jewel in the Hofstätter wine estate crown, is home to the Pinot Nero vineyards. Here, the grapes are cultivated with meticulous attention and respect for nature, resulting in wines of unrivalled elegance, depth and complexity.

Highlighting their dedication to the environment and sustainable agriculture, the winery is committed towards minimising chemical usage and preserving biodiversity in their vineyards. On a visit to the winery, guests will be embraced by stunning scenery, the sound of clinking wine glasses, and a pervasive sense of peace.

From humble beginnings, Tenuta J. Hofstätter has grown into a beacon of Italian wine making. They continue to preserve tradition, whilst embracing innovation; to secure their place in the ever-evolving landscape of viticulture. Indeed, a visit is a must for any inquisitive oenophile. Pity it's not closer to us!
