Description
Vineyards
The grapes come from our single vineyard located in Vista Flores, Tunuyán, Uco Valley at 1054 m.a.s.l. (3428 ft). We have a sandy loam soil in the higher levels of the vineyard and stones in the lower parts so we can divide the vineyard into parcels thus generating greater diversity. This allows us to produce a greater variety of wines from the same vineyard. The drip irrigation system in our vineyard sources
from the snowmelting of the high peaks.
Winemaking
It was made in our small conical stainless steel tanks, with a cold maceration of 48 hours. 7 days fermentation at a temperature of 20-22 C, with selected yeasts characteristic of Pinot Noir. Malolactic fermentation. The total maceration was 10 days. 70% of the wine was aged in French oak barrels for 9 months, another 20% in stainless steel tanks and the remaining 10% in ovoid concrete vessels. 6 months aged in bottle before releasing.
Tasting notes
It has a great varietal tipicity of Pinot Noir. Soft tile reddish colour with brown and salmon reflections. Delicate aroma, like red jams, strawberries, cherries, plums and some leather. Some herbal notes like oregano and thyme. In the mouth, it has great freshness due to its good acidity, sweet impact and great complexity, it is a smooth and silky wine, with ripe tannins that give it a great final harmony.Serving temperature for this wine is between 16º and 18º C. Decant for an hour before drinking it.
