Baettig Vino de Viñedo Los Parientes Pinot Noir 2023

The 2023 Pinot Noir Viñedo Los Parientes originates from Traiguén, Araucanía. Fermented with 15% whole clusters and aged for eight months in oak barrels, it presents a purple hue. Aromas of cherry, pomegranate, dried flowers and sweet briars intertwine with cedar notes. Dry, lean and taut on the palate, the combination of stem tannins, oak and silky Pinot texture elevates things, creating a faintly plush mouthfeel with a gentle roughness. This is a meticulously crafted Pinot Noir from the deep south of Chile. Drinking window: 2024-2034. Score – 94. (Joaquín Hidalgo, vinous.com, July 3, 2024)
