The vineyard for this variety is located at 1,300 meters above sea level in Gualtallary, Tupungato. It is a young vineyard planted on calcareous soils with a very steep slope, which contributes to the health of the grapes as there is no water accumulation or frost. The climate is mountainous, allowing for a wide temperature range, producing grapes with thicker skins.
The grapes are incubated in cement vats, with 80% of the grapes crushed and the remaining 20% whole bunches. The vat is filled by gravity, meaning there is no pumping involved, ensuring that the grapes arrive at their fermentation site virtually intact. A cold maceration of approximately 4 days follows, followed by alcoholic fermentation with indigenous or native yeasts. During this fermentation, the skins are crushed (pillage) three times a day. Malolactic fermentation takes place, followed by sulfitation at 30 ppm and plate filtration, before bottling.
Good intensity for the variety, along with violet tones.
We find a very intense Pinot Noir on the nose, given by our terroir. Aromas of blackberry, strawberry, earth, and mineral notes.
Direct, clear, and upright. It flows lively and smoothly in the mouth, with good volume, great acidity that makes it very fresh, and a sweet, long finish.
