We were on the hunt for an excellent Pinot Noir and it was at an extensive tasting with the super-talented Oscar Salas at Vinña Santa Rita that we finally found it. El Sabio is made with superb, full-blooded fruit from the Valle Aconcagua region. It has sweet cherry charm and, although it has typical varietal softness, a small proportion of it was matured in older American and French oak to add roundness and generosity to the wine.
