Domaine Bousquet Reserva Pinot Noir 2019
This is a wine with intense violet tones. On the nose, it shows complex aromas such as hints of cherry, plums, coffee, tobacco and toast. It is an elegant wine with a medium body and a well-balanced acidity, which is typical of Pinot Noir. The wine unfolds sweet cherry in a palate with a round ending.
A 1990 vacation in Argentina was all it took. For third-generation winemaker Jean Bousquet, it was love at first sight. The object of the Frenchman’s desire: the Gualtallary Valley, a scenic, remote, arid terrain high in the Tupungato district of the Uco Valley in Argentina’s Mendoza region, close to the border with Chile. Here, where the condors fly and not a vine in sight, Bousquet discovered his dream terroir, an ideal location in which to nurture organically-grown wines.
