ALPATACO PINOT NOIR ROSÉ

Alpataco is an autochthonous bush that symbolizes the tenacity of life in the Patagonian steppe. The low yields of the vineyard and a vinification with minimal intervention give rise to fresh and elegant wines, which fully express the varietal typicity and the particularity of the terroir.

The combination of the main climatic factors of the Patagonian steppe translates into the aromatic freshness of this Pinot Noir Rosé.
