Frecciarossa Pinot Nero Bianco Oltrepo Pavese 'Sillery' 2023

Frecciarossa's Pinot Nero Bianco from Oltrepo Pavese in Lombardy is a 2023 still red wine made from Pinot Noir. The name references the traditional white winemaking method applied to a dark-skinned grape, a technique that produces a wine with the delicacy and pale color of a white wine but the structural complexity that Pinot Noir can offer. This is a wine that plays against expectation.

Oltrepo Pavese sits in the southern reaches of Lombardy, just across the border from Emilia-Romagna, and has built a quiet reputation for elegant, food-friendly reds. Pinot Noir from the region tends toward brightness and mineral line rather than weight, and the white-wine approach here amplifies that restraint. The result is a wine with transparency and freshness, one that rewards attention without demanding it.
