De Martino Lote 02 Limarí Valley Pinot Noir 2021
£15.99
- Elegance is a horrible wine word that sounds super stuffy, sadly you can't avoid it when you describe a really good Pinot. Sorry!
- The 02 is a nod to the Pinot Noir clone planted, which is much vaunted in the Gevrey Chambertin area of Burgundy.
- The Limari Valley is 400 clicks to the north of Santiago with soils heavy in Calcareous material, which Pinot loves.
- De Martino is certified by the Wines of Chile Sustainability Code, ensuring they're always working sustainably in three key areas: the vineyard, the winery and the social sector.

The Wine The Wine
Chile
Region:Limarí Valley
The fussiest of all grape varieties without question is Pinot Noir. It needs very specific conditions to thrive. A cool climate, just enough water and it adores limestone soils. Thankfully for us and the De Martino family Chile's Limarí Valley has the perfect climate and soil combination, the only issue here is rainfall, but this can be managed thanks to a few well positioned lakes. A wine with open strawberry fruit, a little menthol character and great freshness - a very precise Pinot Noir.
The Winemaker The Winemaker
Nicolás Peréz and Marco Antonio de Martino
Marco Antonio De Martino is the 4th Generation of the De Martino family to make wines, and he is joined by the young and talented Nicolás Peréz. Their philosophy is based on minimal intervention on single vineyards, including sustainable farming and traditional winemaking methods. Wines are crafted with native yeast, balanced in alcohol and moderate oak (when needed) to preserve the essence of the vineyards. De Martino is proud to be the 1st Carménère producer in Chile, the 1st South American Carbon Neutral winery, Chilean Wine Producer of the Year in 2005 & 2009 by IWSC and Chilean Winery of the Year 2011.
"We've always had a love affair with Burgundy and Pinot Noir, but making great wine from it in Chile has been a 'We can do this' approach with many ups and downs along the way. We think we have achieved our goal, producing a very precise Pinot. Open and honest with the potential to age gracefully." - Nicolás Peréz and Marco Antonio de Martino, Winemakers.
