DESCRIPTION
The Desierto 25 Pinot Noir 2021 from Bodega del Desierto is an Argentinian Pinot Noir with Patagonian character, drawn from the arid landscapes of La Pampa.
Vinified with precision and aged for three months in French oak, it reveals a style that is at once fresh, elegant and approachable. A bright strawberry-red robe gives way to an expressive nose of cherry, lifted by notes of almond and a touch of minerality. On the palate, the balance is particularly well-judged: fruit, tension and a supple texture that brings real moreishness.
It pairs beautifully with full-flavoured fish, white meats or semi-hard cheeses. A precise, easy-drinking Pinot Noir, ideal for discovering another side of Argentinian wine.
REGION
Los Andes
Argentina
The Argentine region of Jujuy is located in the most northern part of the country. In fact, the highest vineyards in the world are found in Uquía, a town in the province of Jujuy. These vines can be found 3 329 metres above sea level. This wine region is quite small compared to others in the area and exports far less. This is too bad, considering how structured and rich these wines are. The most cultivated grape varieties are Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and Merlot. These grapes deliver fragrant aromas of pepper and blackcurrant. And as they mature, notes of spice and undergrowth are revealed.
Recommended for you:
I really liked this wine — it has richness and freshness, but also structure. It pairs well with white meat, like guinea fowl.
