Chakana Estate Nuna Organic Syrah 2023
Argentina is known for its incredible Malbec which thrives in the cool, sunny vineyards that lie in the foothills of the Andes. But there’s more to Argentina than just Malbec, including Chakana Estate Nuna Organic Syrah – a juicy, fresh red wine from an acclaimed estate in Mendoza.
Imagine quitting the 9-5 ‘same old’ and following your dream? It’s exactly what Juan Pelizzatti did in 2002 when he walked away from his IT job and bought a vineyard in Argentina’s acclaimed Mendoza wine region. No more 9-5, instead an all-consuming passion project – and the founding of an estate that’s now one of Argentina’s most exciting new stars.
This expressive, fruity Syrah comes from the Nuna (meaning ‘spirit of the earth’) biodynamic vineyard and is made by Leonardo Devia – a winemaker with a passion for organic and biodynamic winemaking. It’s fresh and juicy with dark berry and black plum aromas and a peppery freshness. Enjoy on its own or with a char-grilled sirloin steak.
