Bodega Chacra
Lunita Patagonia Pinot Noir
Patagonia, Argentina
My first wine from Patagonia. In the light to medium bodied savoury mould. Red cherry, a touch of strawberry, red florals and a gamey note. Medium plus intensity on the palate. Varnishy notes. If tasted blind I could’ve picked this as Australian, like Gippsland, where we have just been. Not overly complex but it is young and still tight. It will develop further in the 2020 to 2030 decade. Picked off the Wine List at Supernormal Melbourne - fabulous food.

Light Ruby with aromas of red fruits, floral and herb cedar notes. On the palate flavors of raspberry and strawberry with notes of cacao and earthy cedar toned. Fine soft tannins, long finish ending with fruit, mineral and earthy character. Very nice value!!
