Errazuriz Estate Series Pinot Noir 2022/23, Aconcagua Valley

Description

Don Maximiano Errázuriz founded Viña Errázuriz in 1870 in the Valle de Aconcagua, 100km north of the capital city, Santiago. He realised that the cool, rainy winters and hot, dry summers combined with Pacific breezes to make it an ideal area to grow grapes. He was the first to plant French varieties there – and it’s safe to say his gamble paid off. Today, Errazuriz is regarded as a world-class winery with an array of awards in their trophy cabinet. This smooth and juicy Pinot Noir has aromatic floral notes and fresh flavours of cherry, strawberry with hints of toasty oak. Its silky mouthfeel makes it an excellent partner for roast pork or fillet of salmon. In 2022, this wine won an IWC award for the 2021 vintage.
