Pantera is one of those wines that perfectly expresses the boldest soul of the Colli Piacentini. Created in the late 1990s as a revolutionary project by Cantine Luretta, it combines historic local grape varieties such as Barbera and Croatina with the international elegance of Cabernet Sauvignon, in a balance built over time and guarded like a family secret. The organic grapes grow among calcareous marl and clay-silty soils around the Castle of Momeliano, where strong temperature variations give concentration, freshness and aromatic depth. After a long fermentation, the wine ages for nine months in barriques, gaining structure, softness and complexity. In the glass it appears intense and seductive, with aromas of ripe cherry, sour cherry, black pepper, cinnamon and sweet spices. The palate is enveloping, deep and dynamic, supported by velvety tannins and a surprising mineral streak that accompanies the long and persistent finish. It is a convivial yet ambitious red wine, capable of accompanying braised dishes, red meats and generous shared tables with personality and style.
