Tasting Notes
To the eye it shows a deep red colour with violet ruby tones. On the nose, red & dark fruit aromas – strawberries, cherries – with a little spice. Fruit forward with a bright, juicy palate, and soft tannins.
The Producer
Founded by Giovanni Vincenzo Pannunzio who emigrated to Argentina from his native Italy in 1952, Las Piedras Pura Vid, also known as Pannunzio, is a family enterprise based in Mendoza. Located in Barrancas, Maipú, the estate produces balanced, fruit forward wines with their unique blend of European tradition, handcrafted quality and permanent technological innovation. Today, Giovanni’s sons José and Luis Pannunzio carry on their father’s legacy of romancing the desert.
