Description

Nestled in the Serra Gaucha wine region of southern Brazil, Familia Geisse is one of the oldest and most prestigious sparkling wine producers, in a country that has become the largest sparkling wine producer in Latin America. Chilean oenologist Mario Geisse moved to Brazil in 1976 to work for Chandon Brazil; he then founded his own winery in Pinto Bandeira in 1979. This historical region became in late 2022 the first DO in the New World exclusively for sparkling wines. The 70 hectares estate has 36 hectares of vineyards and is situated at 800 masl. All of the wines are made following the Traditional Method.

The 2021 Blanc de Noir is 100% Pinot Noir and has a minimum 36 months lees aging. Bone-dry minerality beautifully balanced with velvety creaminess. Structured, complex and
rich with notes of grapefruit, citrus, red berries, green apple and toast.
