From the Producer: Barda is the local term for “eroded steep slope” Often perceived as the “village level” Pinot Noir at Chacra, Barda is sourced from the estate’s “youngest vines” planted in the 1990s. The vines are ungrafted, from an original massale selection on sandy calcareous soils presenting a more high toned aromatic component in the wine. Barda is fermented in equal parts concrete and French oak, 15% of which is new followed by an 11 month elévage. Unfined/unfiltered with minimal sulphur.

This sparkler from Argentina seems ever-so-lightly sweet due to its fruitiness. There are notes of pear, lychee and light tropical notes, along with vanilla. It is clean, fresh and not overly bubbly in the mouth.
