Louis-Antoine Luyt
Pipeño Santa Juana País
Maule Valley, Central Valley, Chile
Holy shit, high contender for wine of the summer. If you haven't tried it, seek it out. Astonishingly vibrant Pais from sexy Mr Luyt. Litre bottle too, more bang for your buck.

Day 4 and just as pretty as on day 1. Luis-Antoine says that since this is made in open fermenters it's already predisposed to air. Red raspberry, bing cherry and subtle pink peppercorn spice.

Dec 7th, 2014Reminds me of gamay. It's hazy and ruby in color with fresh red berries and gravel on the nose. Low in acid and tannins n, light bodied, with flavors of strawberry fruit leather and snow. Easy, yet interesting.

Only the 3rd Pais, or Pipeño I have had, this one shows sharp, high acid fruits, that end with proportional skin tannin/oak aging.
The label says 750, the bottle says liter. Still a pretty penny to pitch for the quality.. fun, yet not a crowd pleaser.

A friend who knows I love Pinots dropped this in my lap. Nose very light with dark berry fruit, muddy earth and its label (like a picturesque mountain view from the plains.) it's also exactly how it tastes. Grasslands and earth with acidity that creeps up at the end. I'll be buying another bottle.
