Description
In a nutshell:
A full bodied, unoaked and very flavourful cloudy natural wine with fruity and nutty aromas.
The lowdown:
As a part of the world thats good for making natural wines, Chile has got to be one of the best. And Vina Echeverrías ¡No es Pituko! (meaning it aint fancy) range was one that particularly impressed us. Being naturally vinified means itll be a bit hazy in the glass and thats how its meant to be. All told, this is a Chardonnay with has quite intense aromas of banana, apple and pear which blend nicely with touches of toasted brioche. For an unoaked wine its still fairly full-bodied and rich and the creamy palate is balanced by a refreshing and fruity finish. A attractive example of naturally made Chardonnay.
The Producer:
The striking No es Pituko range comes from Viña Echeverría, a family-run winery with history going back to the 1930s. These days, it's run by chief winemaker Roberto Ignacio Echeverría and his three siblings, who farm 65 hectares sustainably in Chile's Central Valley. The real transformation kicked off in the 1980s when their father - once a World Bank economist - returned from the USA, rolled up his sleeves, and turned a tired old estate into one of Chile's most respected wineries.
When to drink:
When matching with food poultry, pork or vegetable dishes are the sorts of things that work well.
Suitable for Vegans, Organic
