Alto Valle de Rio Negro

Wednesday, March 31, 2010



Chacra 32, Pinot Noir 2007, Patagonia, USD 55 Soft and delicate with red berries and cherry aromas with slight smoke deep in it. Shortlasting and not very impessive. I won´t go more than 84 points and seems to me quite overpriced.

Catalpa, Pinot Noir, Uco Valley 2008, USD 24 No tipicity with dark fruit and much spicy stuff not related to Pinots. An aggresive red not very pleasant with deep blue color. It won´t reach 79 points in a blind tasting for my palate.

Cloudy Bay, Pinot Noir, Marlborough, NZ, USD 36 Matured pinot with nice notes of well aged wine. Fruits somehow less impressive and unpolished in barely well matching with price. I´d say 83 points. If I try it again it´l be curiosity.
