Pinot Noir

Floral & Earthy

This product is part of the LCBOs Brilliant Baettig Exclusive Online Offer - Quantities Limited. 

Francisco Baettig and Carlos de Carlos cut their teeth in the wine industry as part of the well known Errázuriz operation, where they worked together for many years. Inspired by their mutual love of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, the talented enologist and savvy businessman branched out to create Vinos Baettig. Produced in small batches and sold as limited editions to selected buyers, their wines have swiftly become some of the most interesting & highly lauded among the emerging talents of Chile.

The grapes come from a combination of parcels at Viñedo Los Suizos, grown in the region of Malleco. This is a land of wild forests, beautiful lakes, active volcanoes and abundant rain in southern Chilean. 'Los Parientes' (the relatives) refers to the closeness of the different components within the same vineyard.

Displaying inviting floral scents of wildflowers and rose hips with tinges of tobacco and fragrant dried herbs, the savoury notes are layered nicely against soft fruit tones of  blueberries and sour cherries. Round and juicy on the palate, the fruitiness is tempered by bright acidity and earthy nuances. Fine-grained tannins add density and pleasing texture that accompanies the fruit into the finish. 

Roasted and grilled veggies will compliment the savoury side of this wine. Pair with duck fat roasted brussel sprouts or a veggie lovers pizza.

Cordero San Giorgio is a new beginning in Oltrépo-Pavese for three siblings who grew up surrounded by their family’s vines at the legendary Vietti Estate in Castiglione Falletto in Barolo. The siblings Francesco, Lorenzo, and Caterina Cordero, are grandchildren of Luciana Vietti & Alfredo Currado, one of the pioneers of the first Barolo crus and considered the “father of Arneis.” Their father is Mario Cordero, Alfredo and Luciana’s son-in-law, who was the company’s co-owner from the beginning of the ‘80s until 2016 when it was sold.

The Oltrepò Pavese is a hilly triangle of land in Lombardy, embraced by Piedmont, Liguria, and Emilia-Romagna. A territory dedicated to the cultivation of vines and the culture of wine for centuries: a land of both cultural and gastronomic encounter and exchange. Cordero San Giorgio is in the town of Santa Giuletta, and focuses on working with Pinot Nero, Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay.

Tiamat is a Pinot Nero that is an expression of finesse. Elegant aromas and delicate on the palate. 

Domaine de la Garenne's Sancerre Rouge, made from 100% Pinot Noir, is sourced from two hectares of vineyards in the commune of Verdigny, where the soil is primarily clay-limestone marl. The vines, averaging 30 years in age, are cultivated using organic methods, with careful attention to tillage, yield control, and manual leaf thinning—without the use of herbicides or insecticides. 

Part of the production is aged in 500-litre oak barrels which allows the Domaine to obtain a balanced wine, with small red fruits (cherry, sour cherry) aromatics and subtle oaked notes. The colour is garnet with purple undertones, and the palate is delicious. 

Suggested pairings include red mullet or monkfish; the Sancerre Rouge would also work with a well-ripened Brie or Camembert.

Founded in 2012 by longtime industry veteran James Leary, Snapper Rock was inspired by long days spent fishing along New Zealand’s coastal waters and the easygoing moments that follow - good food, great company, and the glow of a setting sun. The brand focuses on crafting vibrant, fruit-driven wines that capture the essence of New Zealand’s maritime climate, diverse soils, and pioneering spirit. Sourcing fruit from Marlborough in the South and Hawke’s Bay in the North, each bottle reflects the variety best suited to its terroir, offering exceptional quality at an unbeatable value.

This Pinot is silky-smooth and effortlessly elegant, opening with inviting aromas of dark plum, cherry, anise, and a touch of toasted nut, layered with a hint of earthy mushroom. The palate is supple and juicy, with vibrant fruit intensity balanced by a sleek texture and fine, integrated tannins. The finish is long, smooth, and satisfying. Approachable and expressive, it’s a beautifully made wine that overdelivers for the price.

Sip alongside seared tuna or hot smoked kahawai.
