(96+ points) The 2024 Cincuenta y Cinco was sourced from vines planted in 1955 on sand-dominated soils with silt and a small amount of clay content. It offers a hauntingly multidimensional expression of the Chacra project with a weightless allure than sets it apart within an impressive roster of wines. It opens with a detailed, blue-fruited nose radiating violet and rose petal aromas with an undercurrent of turned earth. The palate deftly balances a sleek, suave profile with nimble energy and palpable grace, effortlessly transitioning into a long, nuanced, ethereal finish whose complexity and dimension dramatically juxtaposes its slender frame. While I feel the Treinta y Dos bottling offers a slightly more complete expression of the Chacra project, this is a spectacular example of Patagonian Pinot Noir and one to measure others against. - Matthew Luczy

From vines planted in 1955 on riverbed pebbles, this is perhaps the most seductive of the Chacra Pinots. Alluring aromas of cardamom, bay leaves and Indian spices weave through ripe red cherries and iris. A smoky minerality underlines its salty, sanguine finish, with the sensation of great breadth, which is all quite surprising considering the 2024 weighs in at only 11% alcohol.- Amanda Barnes
