Otronia I, Chubut (Patagonia, Chile) Pinot Noir 2019

Dec 26, 2023

By Roger Morris

 I have long been fascinated with winegrowing in Patagonia, the final frontier in the Southern Hemisphere for winemakers who want to move further south as global warming allows them to grow grapes where previously it wasn’t practical.  This Pinot is understandably light in body and color and is very perfumed with tart flavors of cherry, fresh apricot and a little black raspberry.  The fact that it has lots of dusty tannins help gives it substance.
