DESCRIPTION
Otronia 45 Rugientes Pinot Noir 2022 comes from the selection and blending of several lots of Pinot Noir from the Sierra Silva and Paico vineyards in Patagonia, harvested between late February and late March 2022. Fermentation took place in concrete tanks with varying percentages of whole clusters (10 to 50%). The wine was then aged for 20 to 22 months in untoasted French oak foudres and concrete tanks. Alcohol 12.5%, pH 3.42, TA 6.0, residual sugar 1.8 g/L. The Otronia estate, founded in 2008 in Sarmiento, Chubut, Argentina, was born in a region previously untouched by vineyards. Managed by winemaker Juan Pablo Murgia, it achieved immediate success from its very first harvest in 2017. The estate maintains an organic approach and adapts to the region's climate challenges. Otronia is now recognized as the flagship producer of Chubut, Patagonia.
On the nose, a delicate and fresh profile of fresh red fruits, flowers, and subtle nuances of sweet spices. On the palate, supple and elegant, supported by a lively acidity, concluding with a long and harmonious finish with delicate mineral notes. It pairs well with fish in sauce or grilled (trout or salmon) and Portobello mushrooms. Aging potential of 5 to 8 years.
REGION
Patagonia
Argentina
Between 38° and 45° south, Patagonia is home to some of the southernmost vineyards in the world. A cool climate, constant winds and alluvial soils, sometimes limestone, give wines of remarkable purity and natural acidity.
Within the Patagonia Argentina appellation, three areas stand out: Río Negro for its elegant wines, Neuquén for their power, and Chubut, the most southerly, for their aromatic freshness. Malbec, the leading grape, shows a fresher and more elegant style here than in the rest of the country, alongside Pinot Noir, Merlot and crystalline whites.
