2015 | Montsecano | Refugio Pinot Noir

The wine shows bright raspberry, strawberry jam, with rose petals, violets, and a light component of baking bread. The wine is extremely vibrant with a light, glassy, soft, and smooth mid-palate. The light tannin cradles the wine and lends itself to the refreshing acidity with a long, jam influenced finish.

Reviews:

• Wine & Spirits: Pure and intense in its red fruit, with hints of spice, this is the ideal summer wine, a refreshing and crystal clear expression of Pinot Noir from the rolling hills of Casablanca.

• James Suckling: Cedar, strawberry, flower, light iodine, and oyster shell. Medium to full body, silk tannins and a juicy finish. Shows soul. From Alsace's Andrew Ostertag and Julio Donoso. Drink now. Made from biodynamic grown grapes.

Producer Information

Montsecano is a collaboration of Julio Donoso and Andre Ostertag of Alsace. This Biodynamic Winery consists of two hillside, granitic, small vineyards in the Casablanca Valley. A minimal approach is used in the horse-plowed vineyard and winery. The wines are made exclusively in stainless steel micro tanks or concrete egg fermenters. No oak is used. The small production consists of two Pinot Noirs which are quickly being recognized as some of the best of South America.
