Pinot Nero (a.k.a. Pinot Noir)

Ripe instead of over-ripe fruit is spiced with notes of black pepper and underbrush along with some hints of oak, and framed by rounded tannins.

A truly balanced and elegant wine - notes of plum jam and blackberries accompanied by tertiary hints of licorice, vanilla and leather

The character of Mendoza wines is forged in high altitude desert vineyards irrigated by mineral-rich snowmelt from glaciers and snowfields. Altitudes range from 1,000 feet to around 5,000 feet, where the foothills rise steeply toward the Andes’ peaks. High altitude means cool temperatures and clear air, and clear air means more sunlight for building flavor in the grapes, helping to make Mendoza the source of Argentina’s well-earned reputation for top quality, unique wines.
