Production: Since the end of the 70’s Enrique Mendoza has been making wines from his own vineyard, in Finca Chaconero, situated in Villena (Alicante) where the plants are growing with an environmental friendly technique, without using herbicides or insecticides. This 10 months new and one year old Allier French oak barrel-aged is a single varietal made from selected low-yielding Pinot Noir grapes. It has fermented at 25ºC in small stainless steel vats with frequent and gentle over-pumping during 21 days. Bottled without clarified nor microfiltered.    www.bodegasmendoza.com
