Delicately glimmering in a ruby red, this 2021 Tripantu Pinot Noir Reserve from the Casablanca Valley in Chile has a soft nose with initial aromas of strawberry and red cherry. Each sip is suffused with subtle notes of rose petals and blonde tobacco. The palate is pleasant with fine tannins that are well integrated with this Pinot’s natural acidity and velvety finish. A third-generation family of winemakers produces Tripantu with farming in their blood, a passion for viticulture, and a commitment to crafting high-quality wines imbued with the same magic that touches every inch of their Chilean land. “Tripantu” or “when it all began” is what the Mapuche people of Chile say to recount their stories. This Tripantu takes us to the vineyards of Chile, specifically Casablanca Valley, which is home to one of the country’s most favored wine-growing regions. Casablanca Valley presents a climate where soils of medium fertility and a moderate temperature allow for gradual maturity and brilliant aromatic expression. Enjoy your 2021 Tripantu Pinot Noir with lighter white meats such as a flaky tuna, creamy pasta with white sauce, or a salad with balsamic vinaigrette.
