More about the wine
This more humid, cooler sub-region of the Uco Valley is good terrain for Pinot Noir and this top pour from Salentein proves how good it can be. Deep cherry, truffle and dried rose petal aromas make for a charming wine with fresh acidity and a long finish. With this textured and elegant wine, winemaker Pepe Gallante shows how it’s done without overdoing it.
