Sold out
Catalina Ugarte's Pipeño is 100% País and a beautiful example of this native grape. Sourced from centenarian vines grown in salinic granite soils, the grapes are fermented whole-cluster, then aged for a year in the same stainless steel tanks, then bottled, unfined and unfiltered, with no addition of sulfur. The wine pours a brilliant ruby color displaying bright aromas of herb-tinged, crunchy red berry fruit and wildflowers. The palate is medium-bodied and velvety with juicy wild berry flavors. The supple finish is highlighted with notes of sage and white pepper. This red is unbelievably food-friendly, making it a great wine for tapas night. As a meal pairing, try this with peppercorn-crusted tuna or grilled chicken topped with caramelized onions and mushrooms.
