Chacra Barda Pinot Noir 2023

Piero Incisa della Rocchetta, grandson of Sassicaia's creator, saw the potential of the Mainque area and founded Chacra in 2003. Helped by fantastic Burgundian winemaker Marc Roulot, Piero produces pure, savoury and elegant Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Due to the nature of the environment, the vines are naturally strong and need minimal intervention. All wines are biodynamic and have a natural acidity. Enjoyable in their youth they can also age gracefully and have been scoring consistently high. Pure, savoury and elegant, they are a serious contender for Burgundy.

Produced from Chacra’s youngest vineyards, Barda has a strong and character and is intended to be versatile. Aged for 11 months in concrete tanks (50%) in French oak barrels (15% new). Pure aromas of raspberry and plum alongside meaty notes and hints of sandalwood. Powerful on the palate with soft tannins and a mineral finish notes.
