Familia SchroederPatagonia, Argentina
Why you'll love it
A luxurious late-harvest Argentine Pinot from Patagonia—it's organic/biodynamic, vegan-friendly and delivers big, dessert-style flavour with structure and finesse.
Rich and velvety with ripe plums, cherries, violets and opulent dark chocolate. Sweet yet balanced, with soft tannins and a smooth finish.
Perfect as a dessert wine, alongside dark chocolate, berry puddings or aged cheese.
Best known in Burgundy, Oregon, New Zealand
The great red grape of Burgundy. Cherry, raspberry, earthy and floral notes, with silky tannins and fresh acidity. Notoriously hard to grow well, but capable of extraordinary elegance, and a key grape in Champagne and English sparkling wine.
Argentina
Argentina's southern frontier, centred on Neuquén and Río Negro. Cooler than Mendoza, with strong winds and big swings between day and night temperatures. The result is fresher Malbec, elegant Pinot Noir and crisp whites. A newer, exciting side of Argentine wine.
Patagonia, Argentina
Familia Schroeder farm high-altitude vineyards in Neuquén, Patagonia, where dinosaur fossils turned up on the estate. That is where the Saurus name comes from. Love Wine stocks four wines, including Pinot Noir, Malbec and a late-harvest Pinot.
More from Familia Schroeder →Grapes are left to raisin on the vine, then gently fermented and aged in stainless steel. Produced by Familien Schroeder in Neuquén, inspired by dinosaur fossils discovered on-site—hence the “Saurus” name.
