"It's good to see producers keeping the Pipeño tradition of everyday drinking wines alive in the Itata Valley. This is a bright, modern, super juicy País with lots of fragrance, red cherry, and raspberry fruit, and a nip of savory tannin. "

"The 2021 Tinto Pipeno is a Cinsault-Pais blend from Gaurilihue, Itat. Simple and fruit forward on in the nose, the palate is mildly grippy with good juice and a compact character. A flavorful, thirst-quenching red"
