✨ Technical Specifications
Errazuriz's Estate Series Pinot Noir, historically labeled under the Reserva tier, is a beautiful testament to the cool-climate potential of Chile's Aconcagua region. Sourced from vineyards that benefit from the cooling morning mists and maritime breezes of the Pacific Ocean, this wine highlights the estate's pioneering work in exploring coastal terroirs. To preserve its delicate aromatics and bright red fruit profile, the grapes undergo gentle fermentation in stainless steel, with a portion of the wine aged in French oak barrels to impart subtle structure and complexity without overpowering the fruit. It captures the innovative spirit of the historic estate, offering an accessible yet refined expression of Chilean Pinot Noir.
🍾 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.
