Sur de los Andes Pinot Noir Reserva 2022 750ml

Sur de los Andes was founded in 2005 by Guillermo Banfi in Las Compuertas, Luján de Cuyo, Mendoza. The wines are made by Pablo Durigutti and Tomás Milordo, and this Pinot Noir belongs to the winery's Reserva line.

The 2022 fruit comes from Los Árboles in the Uco Valley, on clay-loam and sandy-stony soils, hand-harvested into crates at 7 tons per hectare. It's 100% Pinot Noir, fermented with indigenous yeasts after a 5-day cold maceration, with 100% malolactic in barrel. Half the wine spends 6 months in French and American oak barrels of 225 to 500 liters.

It has a brick-red color, strawberry, raspberry and cherry with light spice, soft, silky tannins and elegant, persistent acidity.
