Drinking Window: 2022 - 2030
Gabriel Dvoskin selects grapes from his vineyard in Pampa El Cepillo – an especially cool area of the Uco Valley rich in caliche deposits – to make this extremely elegant Pinot Noir. A light red colour, the expressive nose offers cherries, wet leaves, Earl Grey tea and mushrooms, while on the palate it’s rewardingly intense and subtle with layers of different textures, refined tannins and a fragrant finish.
