Otronia Block 1 Pinot Noir 2019

The purity of this fifth vintage of Otronia Pinot Noir is a testament to the dedicated efforts of winemaker Juan Pablo Murgia, who has focused on understanding how this variety adapts to the unique terroir of Sarmiento in the Argentine Patagonia. This remote, cold region, characterized by its intense luminosity, provides the ideal conditions for crafting a Pinot Noir that stands out in South America. The wine, sourced from 12-year-old vineyards near Lake Musters, offers a rich blend of fruit tones balanced by earthy notes, firm texture, and palate-gripping tannins, culminating in a floral finish. Harvested early from sandy soils with clay at depth, this Pinot Noir is not only the finest from Otronia but also one of the best in South America, showcasing the exceptional potential of this terroir for both red and white wines.
