Erráuriz Aconcagua Costa Pinot Noir is an elegant, cool-climate expression of Pinot Noir from Chile's coastal Aconcagua Costa region. Sourced from vineyards just 12 kilometres from the Pacific Ocean and planted on metamorphic volcanic soils, this wine showcases the minerality, freshness, and delicate complexity that define this unique terroir. Why You'll Love It This is cool-climate Chilean Pinot Noir with real finesse—complex, fresh, and beautifully mineral-driven. The proximity to the Pacific Ocean creates ideal conditions for elegant Pinot Noir, with cooling breezes preserving natural acidity and allowing slow, even ripening. With 85% aged in used French oak and native yeast fermentation, this wine offers exceptional purity and terroir expression at an outstanding price point. Vineyard & Production Sourced from the Aconcagua Costa Vineyard, just 12 kilometres from the Pacific Ocean, planted in 2005 and 2009 on metamorphic volcanic soils of slate type that add distinctive mineral notes. The 2020 vintage featured prolonged ripening with excellent acidity retention, delivering elegant wines with vibrant minerality. Grapes were hand-picked, double-sorted, and deposited in stainless steel tanks with 15% whole-cluster. Cold maceration for 3–5 days preceded fermentation with native yeasts, with total maceration lasting 12–20 days. The wine was aged for 11 months in French oak barrels (85% used, 15% new). Tasting Notes Limpid ruby red colour with beautiful violet flashes. Complex nose showing red fruits such as cherries and red currants, accompanied by floral notes of rosehip and dill, with subtle truffle undertones. The palate is dominated by fresh fruits with gentle toasted notes reminiscent of chocolate and coffee. Vibrant acidity and mineral finish showcase the coastal terroir. Perfect Pairings A versatile wine perfect with seared tuna with soy and spring onions, grilled salmon, roasted duck, mushroom risotto, soft cheeses, or light poultry dishes. Also excellent wit
Tabali Vetas Blancas Pinot Noir 2023
Tabalí Vetas Blancas Pinot Noir is an elegant, cool-climate red from the Limarí Valley, balancing vibrant fruit with striking minerality. Sourced from the Talinay and Espinal vineyards, this wine reflects the region’s unique calcareous and alluvial soils, producing a Pinot Noir of finesse, structure, and expressive character. Hand-harvested at optimal ripeness and carefully vinified, it delivers freshness, depth, and a delicate yet complex profile. Meet the producer Established in 2002, Viña Tabalí is a pioneering winery on the edge of the Atacama Desert, celebrated for terroir-driven wines that capture the distinctive character of northern and central Chile. Production 30% of the grapes come from the Talinay vineyard, 12km from the Pacific Ocean, where constant cool sea breezes create lower temperatures than the rest of the valley. Talinay’s calcareous soils, formed from ancient marine terraces, provide excellent drainage and a rich source of calcium carbonate. The remaining 70% comes from the Espinal vineyard, planted on stony alluvial terraces with clay layers and veins of limestone dust. Grapes are hand-harvested into 20kg bins, carefully selected, and destemmed before an 8-day cold soak at 8°C. Alcoholic fermentation occurs in small stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures, followed by a 3-day post-fermentation maceration. The wine is then aged for 12 months in French oak barrels to enhance structure, complexity, and elegance. Tasting notes Bright and delicate, this Pinot Noir displays aromas of raspberry and subtle spice. On the palate, flavours of fresh summer fruit, strawberries, and raspberries are complemented by gentle hints of oak spice and graphite. The wine’s minerality, derived from the region’s limestone soils, provides structure and length, making it both expressive and refined. Food match Pairs beautifully with roast lamb, autumnal stews, or hearty risotto. Grape Pinot Noir 100%
