Friday, January 22, 2016 - Appearance: Clear wine with a pale ruby colour.
Nose: Clean nose with a Medium intensity. This wine is youthful.
Really bright and fruity on the nose with lots of strawberries and cherries. There is a touch of Brett that quickly blows off, revealing streaks of vanilla and a note of wet grass. Interesting and very appealing.
Palate:
Dry
High acidity
Medium tannins
Medium+ alcohol
Medium+ intensity
Medium body
Medium finish
As with the nose; bright, fruity and ready to drink. The acidity is soaring but isn't sour in anyway, which should lend itself nicely to food pairing. Light oak influences round off a very solid Pinot Noir.
Excellent quality Pinot Noir from Mendoza, Argentina. Can be drank now but will gain complexity over the next 1-3 years. At 25 euros a bottle, good QPR.
