Established in 1930, but with an agricultural heritage going back to the 1700s, Viña Echeverría is as much today, as always, driven by a shared passion for winemaking and an uncompromising search for excellence. Viña Echeverría combines nearly a century of viticulture and winemaking experience with a modern state-of-the-art winery, to produce an extensive collection of quality wines. The 'No es Pituko' range represents a radical departure from the rest of the more traditional Echeverría wines, both in look and make-up, being vinified without any additions at any stage.
'No es Pituko' is Chilean slang for 'it ain't fancy' – and while this Carignan isn’t fancy, it is so darn delicious. In the glass, it’s deep ruby with wafting aromas of smoky cherry, baked plum, brown spices & white pepper. The palate is medium bodied with juicy red & blue fruits – Kirsch & blueberry at the core – there is great balance to the purity, crunch & freshness of the fruit, and the warming, peppery spice & grilled herb notes. Pop it in the fridge for 30 minutes for the perfect warm weather sipper.
