2023 La Posta Pinot Noir Glorieta Vineyard

Laura Catena - daughter of the famous wine pioneer Nicolas Catena - set up the La Posta wine series to give the smaller winegrowers of Mendoza their own stage, instead of a nameless spot in the local cooperative. The wines are called La Posta, after the typical local pub that you find everywhere on the side of the road.

The grapes for this Pinot Noir come from the vineyards of Isaías Prieto. They are located in the relatively cool Tupungato, at an altitude of no less than 1200 meters. That's what Pinot Noir likes. The difference in temperature between day and night in particular provides aroma and good acidity. He relies on his delicious fruit, so only 20% of the wine is matured in used French oak barrels. The rest of the wine remained in stainless steel. This produces a delicious glass of Pinot, powerful and balanced, with delicious fruit.

The La Posta Pinot Noir (Glorieta Vineyard) is a delicious glass of Pinot, fruity, powerful and balanced with fresh blueberries and strawberries, ripe plums, jam, elegant and soft, with good acidity, nicely typified for Pinot Noir. Powerful red wine. Delicious with grilled salmon, lamb chops or risotto with mushrooms.
