“The bright red colored 2019 Acusp transported me to the aromas of some Pinot Noirs from Chile. It was named after the hill where the grapes come from, a vineyard planted in 2003 at high density at 1,000 meters in altitude. Part of the grapes fermented in the 12th-century stone pools (lagares) on the property and the rest in stainless steel, all with indigenous yeasts. It went through malolactic in oak barrel, where it was kept for 12 months. It has 13.21% alcohol, a pH of 3.6 and 5.9 grams of acidity. It's soft and gentle, with red berry fruit and a creamy quality to it. The palate is more austere and strict, with a dry mouthfeel and abundant, fine-grained and chalky tannins. It's medium-bodied, with the great purity that is the house style.”
