Finca La Anita Pinot Noir

2021

The Wine

Timeless wines that are the spirit and soul of our terroir at Finca La Anita. Extraordinary wines to drink and age.

 

This Pinot Noir is vinified from carefully selected grapes at our Finca in Agrelo, Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza. The vines are over 40 years old located around 900 meters above sea level and have a low yield (4 to 5 t / ha).

Surface irrigation.

 

Vintage Overview

A classic vintage in Mendoza; dry, fresh and sunny with moderate yields throughout the region from the lowest to the highest areas. This, together with lower rainfall than usual, resulted in fruit with optimal balance, good levels of natural acidity, lovely aromatic expression and soft tannins.

 

Winemaking

Fermented in stainless steel tanks with selected cultivated yeast. Malolatic fermentation occurs spontaneously at controlled temperatures.

Winemaker

Soledad Vargas

 

Grape Varieties

100% Pinot Noir

 

Ageing

12 months in new and one year old French and American medium toasted oak barrels.

 

Tasting Note

Deep violet colour. On the palate blackberry, quince and plum aromas are complemented with spicy cumin and nutmeg from its time in oak barrels. Plenty of body combines nicely with a fresh elegance. 

 

Ready to drink but will develop favourably in bottle for up to 6 years.
