Grown in Sarmiento, the world’s southernmost vine land, some 1,450km from the Uco Valley, this is truly extreme Pinot Noir, withstanding fierce winds, cold temperatures and little rain at high altitude. Helped by consultant Alberto Antonini, winemaker Juan Pablo Murgia ferments the grapes in concrete then ages the wine in untoasted foudres for about 18 months. Anne Krebiehl MW: Red berry, white pepper, heightened aroma. Yum. Concentrated, peppery, bright and wonderful. There is structure and brightness but also vividly pure, tart fruit. Pristine and fresh. Justin Knock MW: Lovely colour, beautiful potpourri aromas! It’s delicate yet firm. Rose hip, white flower, cherry; a touch bitter. Dirceu Vianna Junior MW: Perfumed and vivacious, includes aromas of cherries, cranberries, rhubarb and a hint of spice. On the palate it is elegant, with beautiful silky texture, sophisticated structure and a long, refreshing finish.
