DESCRIPTION
Baettig Los Primos Pinot Noir 2021 is an exceptional wine from the D.O. Traiguén, embodying the authenticity and richness of Chilean terroirs. Sourced from ancient volcanic soils in southern Chile, it was aged for 16 months in French oak barrels, of which 34% is new. Baettig's artisanal approach, featuring manual viticulture, indigenous yeasts, and delicate extraction, produces pure and fruity wines acclaimed by international critics. The Baettig vineyard, located in Traiguén in southern Chile, was founded in 2013 by Swiss proprietors on a clay-granitic plateau. There, they planted 15 hectares of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Their artisanal approach, utilizing manual viticulture, indigenous yeasts, and delicate extraction, produces pure, lively, and fruity wines reflecting the region's vigorous climate and mineral soils. Baettig has thus transformed Traiguén into a recognized appellation, acclaimed by international critics.
