2024 Vino de Vinedo Los Parientes Pinot Noir
Buying options
Tasting notes
The 2024 Pinot Noir Vinos de Viñedo Los Parientes from Traiguén opens with floral aromas of rosehip and hints of rose, plus a light herbal note that might suggest whole clusters, though none were used. Extra dry, it shows more marked acidity than in other years, along with touches of damp earth and a trace of chalk. The 2024 is a drinkable Pinot Noir with character. The botanical edge may stem from second flowering, after a November frost reduced the crop. With time, it may settle into a calmer profile.

Like the Los Parientes Chardonnay, this Pinot Noir lost 90% of the crop to frost in 2024,which is bad news for its growing troupe of aficionados. Made with a mix of Burgundianclones (777, 828 and GA-02), it's floral, ethereal and charming, with savoury tannins, raspberry and wild strawberry fruit and some clove spice from 15% whole bunches.
