✨ Technical Specifications
Errazuriz Estate Pinot Noir showcases the cooler, ocean-influenced side of Chile's Aconcagua region. Sourced from vineyards where morning mists and cold Pacific breezes moderate the daytime heat, this wine captures the delicate, aromatic potential of the Pinot Noir grape in South America. Errazuriz, established in 1870, has long been a pioneer in mapping the diverse microclimates of the Aconcagua Valley. For their Estate Series, the grapes are carefully harvested and fermented in stainless steel tanks, with a portion undergoing brief aging in French oak barrels to add subtle complexity without overshadowing the bright, primary fruit character. The resulting wine is celebrated for its vibrant red cherry and raspberry aromas, accented by delicate herbal and earthy undertones.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1870 by Don Maximiano Errázuriz, Viña Errázuriz is an architect of modern Chilean viticulture. Sited in the Aconcagua Valley, the estate traverses diverse mesoclimates, moving from warm, alluvial inland terraces framed by the Andes to cool-climate maritime slopes in Aconcagua Costa. Viticulture emphasizes precision farming certified under the Wines of Chile Sustainability Code. Errázuriz revolutionized Chile's global standing through the historic 2004 Berlin Tasting orchestrated by Eduardo Chadwick, alongside longtime Technical Director Francisco Baettig. While internationally revered for red icons, Errázuriz’s white wine program demonstrates profound terroir mastery, especially along the coastal schist soils of the Las Pizarras vineyard. Benchmark white expressions like Las Pizarras Chardonnay deliver striking mineral reduction, crystalline acidity, and tension, while the Max and Costa Sauvignon Blancs showcase vibrant, citrus-driven linear precision that highlights the estate's exceptional Pacific maritime influence.
