"This elegant Pinot Noir vineyard, planted in 2004 with clone N°777, is gradually building its own history. Vinified with 50% whole bunches, the resulting wine is very delicately oaky, allowing subtle notes of spice, fresh tobacco and raspberry to express themselves freely. One of Patagonia's must-haves".

Note and review by M. JEROME C. Published on 16/04/2023
This is a real pleasant surprise: it has a false Burgundian air with more freshness than recent vintages in France, the nose is quite open on red fruit and strawberry, the palate is supple, with real tension and very polished tannins, the finish is long on spicy notes.
