Chacra Pinot Noir Barda 2020

The Barda Pinot is a sensational value high-end Pinot Noir for lovers of pretty, fine-boned styles rather than the rich, mulchy examples. Cranberry, pomegranate and other red fruits dominate the buoyant nose. It is pine needle fresh, alpine in feel, with a flowing and gentle fruit-sweet core, and shows a savoury, dusty edge to the finish.

The fruit for the Barda Pinot is sourced from Bodega Chacra's younger vineyard, planted in 1990 from cuttings from their ungrafted original vineyards from 1932 and 1955. It is a wine of heritage, and pure class.
