Errazuriz Las Pizarras Pinot Noir 2021 presents an intriguing spectrum of flavors and aromas. On the nose, it offers notes of ripe red berries, cherry, and subtle hints of earthiness, complemented by a touch of spice. The palate reveals a medium body with balancing acidity, showing flavors of raspberry and cranberry alongside a delicate influence of oak, which adds a layer of complexity.
This Pinot Noir hails from the Aconcagua Coastal region of Chile, an area known for its cool climate that aids in preserving the grape`s acidity and freshness. The grapes are sourced from specific, sought-after vineyards, with meticulous vineyard management and hand-harvesting emphasizing quality. The wine undergoes natural fermentation and is aged in French oak barrels, which contributes to its nuanced profile and structure.

The nose of the 2021 Las Pizarras Pinot Noir is clean, floral, expressive and elegant, with purity and precision. This is clean and less earthy, with very fine tannins and full development of aromas and flavors. The grapes ripened slowly, and they developed more nuance; but the main difference can be in quality of the tannins, which are really velvety here. It has amazing freshness, reflected by a pH of 3.43. It`s linear and vertical. They used a smaller percentage of full clusters in the native fermentation, 10%, and the wine matured in French oak barrels, 45% of them new, for 12 months. Superb, very elegant. 7,900 bottles were filled in June 2022. - Luis Gutiérrez

The 2021 Pinot Noir Las Pizarras from Aconcagua Costa was fermented 15% as whole bunches before spending 12 months in French oak barrels, 45% of them new. A rich cherry red in hue. The complex nose offers precise sour cherry and sweetbrier notes with hints of elderberry and traces of blood against a cedar backdrop. Silky and refreshing in the mouth. The finely grained tannins are underlined by the long, tense finish of sour cherry. A tart red.

Full bottle all of 1,554 g. Grown 12 km from the Pacific on slate. Transparent crimson. Sweet and herbal on the nose. There is more to this than many a Chilean Pinot. Raspberry fruit and lots of charm. Youthful but already drinkable. It`s actually more broachable than its Chardonnay counterpart. But there is some fine tannin lurking underneath. This is one of the best Chilean Pinots, surely? Bright-fruited. Not complex but well constituted for a few more years in bottle.(JR)
