La Posta Glorieta Pinot Noir – High Elevation Elegance

La Posta Glorieta Pinot Noir is a Single Vineyard wine from Tupungato, Uco Valley, a region internationally recognized for producing refined, cool-climate Pinot Noir. The name “Glorieta” refers to an elevated lookout or pavilion designed for contemplation and panoramic views—a fitting tribute to this vineyard’s remarkable setting at 3,800 feet above sea level.

Planted in 1993, the 20-acre Glorieta Vineyard is dedicated exclusively to Pinot Noir and features five Burgundian clones, carefully selected to bring complexity, aromatic precision, and balance. These 20-year-old vines, shaped by cool nights and intense daylight, yield fruit with natural freshness and elegant structure. Crafted from 100% Pinot Noir, this wine expresses both varietal purity and a strong sense of place.

In the glass, the wine presents a bright, translucent ruby hue. The nose is inviting and expressive, offering aromas of nutmeg, baking spices, and delicate floral notes. On the palate, a core of ripe red and Bing cherries unfolds smoothly, supported by gentle spice and a light, subtly integrated oak influence. Medium-bodied and silky, the wine is approachable yet nuanced, delivering freshness, balance, and refined texture.

This Pinot Noir is exceptionally versatile at the table, pairing beautifully with grilled Pacific salmon, roasted rack of lamb, duck breast with cherry reduction, and elegant vegetable-forward or mushroom-based dishes found in modern American cuisine. Its poise and drinkability make it ideal to enjoy both before and throughout a meal.

La Posta Glorieta Pinot Noir is a celebration of altitude, craftsmanship, and quiet elegance—a pure expression of high-elevation Pinot Noir from the Uco Valley.
