JUAN CARRAU Pinot Noir de Reserva

HISTORY
Over the last 40 years, Bodegas Carrau has studied and identified the best blocks for each variety of grape in Las Violetas. These are obtained due to ideal conditions that occur in our vineyards, where the best aromas and flavours were achieved for each variety.

REGION
Las Violetas, Canelones, Uruguay

VARIETAL COMPOSITION
100% Pinot Noir

WINEMAKING
The grapes are harvested by hand and transported in 16 kg crates. Then they are selected and vinified with a 2-days short maceration at low temperature and then fermented in stainless steel tanks at 22ºC. Finally, it rests for 6 months in oak barrels.

TASTING NOTE
Aged red wine, with aromas of red fruits, spices and black tea. The very subtle oak respects and adds complexity to the varietal aromas. In the mouth, very lively acidity and tannins providing finesse and aging potential. Ideal to accompany all kinds of pâtés, soft sausages and pasta. Also, for a dessert with soft cheeses. Serve at 18ºC.
