Score: TA95
Francisco Baettig has an enviable track record with Chardonnay at Errázuriz, so it’s no surprise that the first release from his own vines in the Traiguén sub-region of Malleco is so impressive. Saline, mineral and fizzing with energy, this has skilfully integrated 26% new wood, pear, wet stone and citrus flavours and a hint of smoky oak. 2020-2025

| Producer Info | Francisco Baettig, probably South America’s greatest winemaker, is responsible for making all the premium wines for Eduardo Chadwick and Errazuriz, including Sena, Don Maximiano, Vinedo Chadwick and Las Pizarras.
Vinos Baettig is his new project. The Baettig wines are very small production Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from cooler climate Southern Chile region of Malleco. The style is similar in approach and quality to the Las Pizarras wines also made by Baettig in Aconcagua Costa.Vinos Baettig has been included among the Top 100 Wine Discoveries 2020 by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate. “Francisco ‘Pancho’ Baettig is one of the finest winemakers in Chile and responsible for some of the best wines in the country. His own personal project focuses on Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from Malleco in the south, where his grandparents arrived from Switzerland. The wine is produced in an artisanal and manual way from one of the cooler terroirs in Chile. Vibrant, precise and symmetric.” Wine Advocate, Top 100 Wine Discoveries 2020 |
