The EQ Pinot Noir has an intense red color with glints of ruby. The nose is rather austere and mineral, followed by elegant floral and ripe citrus notes. The palate is powerful and unctuous with high acidity. The wine is elegant and structured with a lingering finish.

James Suckling (93 Points & #68 of the Top 100 Wines of Chile 2022):
"A flavorful, savory pinot with ripe dark cherries and raspberries, roasted licorice, coca cola, wet earth and dried roses. A very smooth pinot with fresh but naturally rendered acidity that gives it a supple and composed feel. Long, with lots of roses and forest-berries in the finish. From organically grown grapes with Ecocert certification. A joy to drink now."

The year 1892 saw the emigration of the first generation of the Matetic family from what is now known as modern-day Croatia to the southernmost Chilean town of Puntas Arenas. Almost 100 hundred years later, the world started to become aware of Matetic Vineyards. And so the story begins. In 1999, planted between the San Antonio and Casablanca Valleys of Chile in the Rosario Valley, Matetic Vineyards was born to the world. This coastal property occupies over 200 planted acres that take advantage of ocean influences and the unique climate that comes along with it. In 2001, this brought forth a Matetic Syrah, which became Chile’s first cool climate Syrah. Other varieties include Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.

With an eye towards sustainability, Matetic moved to organics beginning in 2002, now certified organic by CERES GmbH, and following biodynamic practices. One year later, in 2003, the technologically advanced Matetic winery was built, featuring gravity flow and natural and sustainable materials. Their boutique hotel, La Casona, followed in 2004, and at the same time received its organic certification. And in 2013, Demeter awarded Matetic biodynamic certification.
