More about the wine
This Pinot Noir from vines planted on schist terraces brings a whole new face to Maule. With a few years in bottle before release, this Pinot Noir shows more evolved tertiary notes of stewed red berries and leather but ultimately it’s a savoury, mineral wine with graphite and grip on the finish. The early vintages are promising, and I’m sure there’s a lot more to come from this special site.
