Viña Casa Silva, Cool Coast Pinot Noir 2023

Viña Casa Silva’s Cool Coast Pinot Noir 2023 is a refined Chilean red from the cool maritime climate of Paredones, showing the kind of precision and finesse that Pinot Noir lovers seek. Hand-harvested and carefully selected before vinification, it combines bright fruit, subtle smoke, and a graceful earthy character, making it a beautifully expressive example of the variety.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this Pinot Noir shows a delicate, translucent ruby tone. The nose opens with fresh strawberry and cherry, layered with a gentle smoky edge and hints of earth that add depth and authenticity. On the palate, it is elegant and medium-bodied, with lively acidity, fine tannins, and a supple, juicy core of red fruit. The oak influence is well judged, supporting the wine without overpowering its freshness, and the finish is long, poised, and finely textured. It should drink well now and can develop gracefully over the next few years.

Production
The grapes are hand-harvested, typically in the first week of April, and then sorted by hand to ensure only the best fruit is used. A cold maceration of around 12 days at 5–8°C helps build color and fruit expression, followed by fermentation over three weeks at relatively cool temperatures of 24–28°C to preserve the wine’s aromatic purity. The wine is then matured for 12 months in French oak barrels that are two years old, allowing for subtle complexity without masking the Pinot Noir character.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs especially well with game pâté, duck, veal dishes, and green salads with pieces of smoked bacon. Serve slightly chilled at around 14–16°C to highlight its freshness and aromatic lift. Decanting is not essential, but a short aeration can help open the wine if enjoyed in its youth.

Producer
Viña Casa Silva is one of Chile’s most respected family-owned wineries, known for combining modern winemaking with a strong sense of place.
