The Domaine Bousquet also successfully grows Pinot Noir in the foothills of the Andes at 1200m altitude. The cool night climate at this altitude provides the finesse in this wine. It is matured in barriques for 10 months. The result is a medium-bodied and elegant red wine with aromas of cherries and strawberries, fine wood notes and a smooth and long finish. A nice addition to Argentina's other "usual" grape varieties. organic wine
