This vineyard of gnarled and ungrafted Pinot Noir vines was later added to a neighboring vineyard of vines planted in 1955. With these old vineyards, ostensibly in the middle of nowhere, Piero has created a winery that exists outside of the usual New World vs. Old World debate and is redefining what is possible with Pinot Noir (and now Chardonnay with the help of Jean-Marc Roulot) in the Southern Hemisphere. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe climate is dry, with a maximum humidity of thirty percent and an average of seven inches of rainfall annually. This aridity, coupled with the natural barrier of the surrounding desert, results in a complete absence of phylloxera and vine diseases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCincuenta y Cinco comes from three vineyards totaling 7 hectares, planted in 1955 which gently rest on a sea of pebbles, typical in riverbed soils. Soils are clay, sand, limestone and alluvial covered in calcerous matter. It is fermented with its whole bunches at very low temperatures, enhancing the floral characteristics of the wine. It is essential 50% whole cluster with the rest of the stems used to make the pied de cuve. Cincuenta y Cinco has the most tension of all of Piero's wines. It is aged in a combination of neutral oak barrels and 4000 liter cement vats.
