Bodega Chacra, Lunita Pinot Noir, Río Negro, Mainqué, 2021

Piero Incisa della Rocchetta’s most recent creation for Bodega Chacra (Mainqué, Patagonia) is this exquisite Pinot Noir made with biodynamic grapes from an old, diminutive vineyard allowed to run fairly wild. Aged in concrete and old barrels, the nose delivers pure mineral and floral aromas accompanied by sour red fruit and hints of citrus. In the mouth, it’s medium-bodied with a tense, linear feel and insistent, characterful tannins.
