Pinot Noir

Chile
Casablanca Valley
2020

100% Pinot Noir, farmed biodynamically, from a single vineyard. The vines are 15 years old, and grow in granitic soils at just over 1,000 feet elevation. Aged and fermented completely in concrete egg.

Dark ripe cherry and black fruits jump out of the glass with underlying raspberry fruit notes. A condensed and dark spiraling mid-palate shows layers of minerality and complexity, with hints of wet crushed rock(granite), sage, clove and blueberry . Rich full fruit, mineral driven, with a long, generous, smooth finish.

"I found very primary and ripe aromas in the 2020 Montsecano, which reached 13.8% alcohol with notes of prunes and earth. It matured for longer in concrete egg and has some exuberant flavors of soy sauce and decayed violets. It has a medium to full-bodied palate with some grip and fine tannins."
