Apaltagua Colección Limited Edition Pinot Noir 2017, San Antonio, Chile
£17.95 – £90.00
Selected for Waddesdon’s guest wines due to its quality, rarity and complexity. Only 6,700 bottles of this limited edition wine were produced in 2013. The grapes are collected from a single vineyard in the San Antonio Valley, which is one of the coolest regions in Chile. Pinot Noir thrives in a cool climate, and the gradual ripening process enables an impressive degree of complexity. Waddesdon has complete UK exclusivity on this wine.
Full description
With a pale ruby-red colour, Colección Pinot Noir has pronounced aromas of wild fruits, cinnamon, white pepper, cranberry and a touch of smoke from the French oak. The texture is rich yet elegant with layers of pepper and cranberry fruit and a leathery spice driven finish. Colección Pinot Noir 2016 has a medium bodied feel, yet the intensity of flavour is certainly pronounced – which is a sign of great winemaking.
