WINE DESCRIPTION
Chacra Cincuenta y Cinco Pinot Noir is a unique expression of Pinot Noir. Hailing from a single vineyard of ungrafted vines planted in 1955 in Rio Negro, Argentina. The winemaking process is carefully executed, to avoid distorting the fruit expression. De-stemming is done by hand and ferment is completed in neutral vessels. The result is a wine that beautifully captures the essence of Pinot Noir in Argentina. This Patagonian wine has a more structured nature than Burgundy due to the thicker grape skins caused by the high winds in the area. This wine is a must-try for Pinot Noir lovers seeking new high-quality expressions of the grape.
