Bodega Familia Schroeder
Saurus Select Patagonia Pinot Noir
Patagonia, Argentina
Named for dinosaur unearthed during winery construction. Bright Ruby color, 40% was aged in French oak for 9 months, with aromas of red berry fruit, floral and herb spice. On the palate flavors of cherry and raspberry with smoky and pleasant earthy herb notes, wrapped in vivid acidity and nice mouthfeel. Fine tannins, good balance, medium finish ending with fruit, smoke and oak character. Nice.

It went really well with Trader Joe’s Kung Pao Chicken. It has a smooth flavor, mineral without tannins, and fruit that counteracts the spice.

Talk about a story behind a wine… They found the largest Argentine “saurus” complete fossils at this vineyard’s site. This Pinot grown in northern Patagonia is the perfect compromise between old world and say: “Sonoma Pinot…” No barnyard, nor funk. Pop and pour kind a deal, not heavily oaked, nor heavily acidic. Flowing on the palate: tranquil and hitting all the right notes, red cherry, acid, earthy…

SWEET! Light fruit… strawberries, red cherries… Pleasant with slight tannins, well balanced light acid…..  I want to drink with friends ….I would not think it be a big player for dinner.
