Vinos de Potrero is a winery founded in 2008 in Mendoza by Nicolas Burdisso and his wife Belén Soler Vallé, who enthusiastically identified the Gualtallary wine-growing area as the ideal land to make great expressions of the terroir, relying from the outset on experienced professionals such as Bernardo Bossi Bonilla, one of the most respected Latin oenologists who has a great knowledge of the Mendoza region, boasting experience at prestigious wineries in the area such as Catena Zapata. Gualtallary is now one of the most appreciated sub-zones in all of Mendoza due to its ability to provide more subtle and refined expressions; it is located in the Uco Valley viticultural zone, at the foot of the Andes mountain range. Here, the sandy and calcareous soils of alluvial origin rich in skeleton, and the high altitudes of around 1,350 metres above sea level.
Description
Il Potrero Reserva Pinot Noir 2021 nasce a Gualtallary, una delle zone più vocate e fresche della Valle de Uco. I terreni poveri e calcarei, l'altitudine e la forte escursione termica tra giorno e notte favoriscono una maturazione lenta delle uve, preservando freschezza, acidità naturale e intensità aromatica.
Organoleptic characteristics:
Nel calice presenta un elegante rosso rubino. Al naso emergono soprattutto ciliegia, piccoli frutti rossi freschi e frutti di bosco, accompagnati da delicate sfumature speziate provenienti dall'affinamento in rovere.
Storage time:
15 years
Vinification
Le uve vengono raccolte manualmente. La fermentazione avviene in vasche di acciaio inox, utilizzando lieviti indigeni e mantenendo circa il 20% dei grappoli interi
