Errazuriz Pinot Noir Wild Ferment 2006

Valle de Casablanca, Region de Aconcagua, ChileThe '06 wild ferment pinot came of the La Escultura vineyard in the Casablanca Valley. The clones here include 115 and 777, most of which was planted in 1996. The '06 year was cool with slow maturation leading to fragrant if less fruity style. The wine is aged for eleven months in French oak barrels, 57% of which were new. The nose is open and aromatic with an earthy, forest floor undercurrent and some red raspberry fruit over top. The oak is subtle and well-integrated. Look for quiet, earthy, red berry flavours light round tannins and bright acidity.
