Description
In a nutshell:
A smooth and rich natural Carignan with ripe red fruit and spicy notes from Chile.
The lowdown:
The producers of this wine, Vina Echeverría, are very much into sustainable agriculture and theyre very proud of their natural wine range under the ¡No es Pituko! label. You dont tend to see a lot Carignan outside the south of France, but its works very well in this fulsome red. Bring a natural wine its not filtered, or fined before bottling so a bit of cloudiness in the bottle is to be expected. What you do get, though, is a lovely fruity wine with expressive notes of rich plum and ripe black fruits accompanied by subtle spicy notes of cinnamon and a touch of star anise. On the fresh palate there are some fine tannins and subtle earthy tones and its, altogether, a nice, silky mouthful.
The Producer:
The striking No es Pituko range of natural wines hails from Vina Echeverría, a family-run winery with roots in the 1930s. They farm 65 hectares sustainably in Chiles Central Valley. Chief winemaker Roberto Ignacio Echeverría runs the business with his three siblings. The modern transformation began in the 1980s when their father, a former World Bank economist, returned from the USA and renovated the rundown estate making it into the widely admired winery it is today.
When to drink:
This is a very versatile wine but would pair best with beef and lamb dishes, a great pair for any BBQ.
Suitable for Vegans, Organic
