The Bassus Pinot Noir 2022 is a remarkable red wine from Bodegas Hispano Suizas, recognized for the careful selection of its grapes, sourced from low-yield vines in its own vineyards. This variety, originally from Burgundy, adapts exceptionally well to the Utiel-Requena region, where the winery owns the only estate dedicated to Pinot Noir in the area. For the production of this wine, meticulous cold fermentation is carried out at 8°C, allowing the fruit characteristics to remain intact. After fermentation, the grapes are gently pressed in a pneumatic press, and the resulting wine is aged for a minimum of 10 months in new French Allier oak barrels. The tasting reveals its attractive medium-layered cherry-red color, accompanied by violet reflections. Its aromatic profile is of high intensity, exhibiting a complexity that combines notes of French oak with ripe fruits like cherry and cassis, along with a hint of licorice. On the palate, it presents itself as a full-bodied and velvety wine, with an elegant freshness and a persistent toffee finish that enhances its complexity. Ideal for savoring on its own or paired with various dishes, Bassus Pinot Noir 2022 is undoubtedly a gem of the wine landscape in the Valencia Community.
