About the Wine

 

Tabalí's estate Pinot Noir vineyard is young, at only 8 years of age, but is already producing fruit of remarkable quality. The vines are planted in double rows with an average yield of 7,000 Kgs./ha. The limestone soil present here lends a nice bit of minerality, which comes through in the Pinot Noir in just the right amount of flavor.  This is an excellent Pinot Noir at an extremely reasonable price.  It is flying off the shelf as more and more people are discovering its great smooth taste and value.

Tasting Notes

 

Of deep cherry color, this Pinot Noir is intense and elegant to the nose, red currant and strawberry are the highlighted tones. To the palate, its soft tannins mix with toasty hints that arise from being aged for 10 months in French oak barrels, making it a round and lingering finished wine with medium persistency.
