Tabali Talinay Pinot Noir Limari Valley 2014

Medium dark and translucid ruby color. Aromas of red and black berries, earth, pepper, dried flowers, some oak, all in a powerful and expressive nose. Charming on the palate with its fruit and creamy texture, the wine still is serious, quite spicy with depth and tastyness. There is acidity, freshness while being true to the grape variety. Among the best Chilean Pinot Noir I’ve ever had. To keep in the cellar to try again in few months or years. Very good+ (90)

Made of Pinot Noir from a vineyard located at 12 km of the Pacific Ocean. Fermented in tanks and aged 12 months in French oak barrels. Alcohol level of 13,5%

Medium dark ruby color. Nose of red fruits like strawberries, raspberries and just a hint of rhubarb and peppery spices. On the palate, it’s all about fruit. Might sounds like a “cliché”, but is so good and easy drinking. No razor-sharp acidity, no heavyness, slightly rustic on the finish that brings up a touch or seriousness, otherwise it would be too fun to enjoy with restraint! Among my favorite wines of that specific style, since a few vintages already. Good+ (88)

Light ruby color. Aromas of crushed strawberries and field berries. Fresh and inviting. Lively and fresh with its flavors of red berries and clay notes, then a finish with fine spices bright it up a little. Medium long, but it’s so enjoyable, exactly what I did ! Bien+ (88)
