Nice ruby color. Behind its characteristic nose of cherry and strawberries it reveals a hint of mineral notes, tomato plant and a slightly spicy finish. In the palate, the attack is subtle, with a kind but sufficient tannic structure, a refreshing acidity and a mid to long length.

Fermentation and Maceration

Traditional: our Pinot Noir is produced according to the ancient and traditional Burgundy ‘pigeage’ technique, using small open tanks of 8,000 liters where it is made ‘by hand’. After harvesting in the cool of the mountain morning the tanks are macerated for about 5 days at a temperature of 8°C. Fermentation at between 18-24°C takes place over about a week. The unique process of pigeage or punching down, keeps the cap or sombrero of skins moist and allows for the intensifying of flavours and richer colors.

The Pinot grows further up from the river terraces closer to the descending mountain hillsides where many slides and erosion over the centuries have transformed what are extensively alluvial river bank soils into colluvial soils. The sharper less weathered, less sedimentary stones of the these soils allow the Pinot to develop a more minerally character not common for this variety in the Maipo.
