2016 Vintage- This Pinot Noir exhibits a surprising finesse for the variety grown in high altitude. On the nose you can find an attractive cherry aroma with notes of fine white pepper. The mouthfeel shows a supple texture with finely grained tannins. A very long finish that calls for a second glass.
A breathtaking, sunbathed landscape rises - right in the middle of the vast Andes Mountains. A cool wind blows in the vineyard, aside a pure, natural stream that runs down the slopes. Located at an elevation of 6,500 ft, here the hills have been eroded through the years and have created new colluvial soils at the foot of the mountains. This is the character of our vineyard. Estancia Uspallata is a joint venture between Alejandro Sejanovich & Jeff Mausbach (who work actively on the wines and the vineyard) and Ariel Saud (who owns the property) that takes viticulture to a new and extreme level, being the highest vineyard in all of Mendoza.
