Errazuriz Las Pizarras Pinot Noir 2017 (0,75 L)

Las Pizarras is one of the most innovative projects in recent years, with a great sense of origin and pioneers in adopting a philosophy based on the terroir from Aconcagua Costa. Years of knowledge and mapping the vineyard revealed specifics blocks to produce the most complete and complex Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Syrah.

The name comes from the high percentage of metamorphic rock, specifically slate (“pizarras” in Spanish) found in the property.

“A clean and beautiful cherry red colour with ruby brilliance define the appearance in the glass. Las Pizarras Pinot Noir is vibrant, and its aroma is full of raspberries, rosehips, myrtle and an interesting spicy character. A few minutes after pouring, the different layers begin to emerge. Distinct aromas of wet stone, sweet spice and earthy characters transporting one to the place itself. There is a feeling of moist fog and chalky soils that projects the unique characters of the cool climate terroir of Aconcagua Costa. In the palate, the wine is complex and well structured, it is decidedly forward and with fine, elegant tannins that are defined by the slate and schist soils. A wine of great perseverance, with elegant tannins delivering a long and persistent finish.”
