Alta Yari Pinot Noir 2022

Grown nearly 1,600 meters above sea level, in a parcel of nearly two hectares planted in 2009, this is one of the most extreme pinots in Mendoza. It’s a red with a very pronounced herbal expression and floral tones that combine with aromas and flavors of ripe red fruit. A pinot that has a lot of character, earthy notes, and spice tones from aging nine months in used 225-liter barrels. It’s deep and juicy, with firm tannins and great structure, the red you need for charcuterie. Score – 94. (Patricio Tapia, guiadescorchados.cl, 2024)
