The grapes for this limited production Pinot Noir (around 1392 cases) come from a vineyard that is only 12 kilometers from the Pacific Ocean, a Mediterranean, maritime-influenced climate that is cooler than other grape growing areas of Chile. It's garnet in color. On the nose, the first scent I detected was cinnamon. While very fruit forward, with a mélange of black cherry, cranberry, raspberry, red currant and blackcurrant fruit flavors on the nose and palate, it is also cinnamony, spicy and smoky, with good tannin structure and lively acidity. It is quite young, so I recommend decanting for a short while. SPR $25.
