FEATURES
🏰 The 2022 Chacra Lunita Pinot Noir from Patagonia, Argentina, is a vibrant and pure expression of an exceptional terroir. This wine is made from a very old, un-grafted, tiny vineyard of 1.5 hectares that has been carefully nurtured back to life. The vineyard's unique soil composition of calcareous material, sand pebbles, and clay, combined with cool, windy conditions and alluvial soils, contributes to the wine's freshness and acidity. The 2022 Lunita displays a brilliant ruby color, offering a complex bouquet of fresh red fruits, delicate floral notes, and a subtle mineral touch. On the palate, it is lively and elegant, with silky tannins and refreshing acidity, leading to a long and persistent finish. Winemaker Piero Incisa della Rocchetta employs a minimalist approach, with fermentation in open cement tanks and aging in a combination of used oak barrels and cement, prioritizing the natural expression of the fruit and terroir. 【 Pure expression of ancient, un-grafted Patagonian vines 】.
🍴 This vibrant Pinot Noir is incredibly versatile. It pairs beautifully with grilled salmon, mushroom risotto, roast poultry, or duck breast with orange sauce. Its freshness also makes it a great match for charcuterie, mild cheeses, or even Asian cuisines with sweet-salt flavor combinations.
🥂 An absolute must-try for Pinot Noir lovers, ideal for a casual yet elegant dinner, a gathering with friends, or as a thoughtful gift. Its purity and freshness make it enjoyable in its youth, but it also possesses the structure for short-term cellaring.
