Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The single-vineyard Cinsault 2021 Newk was named for musician Sonny Rollins Newk, for Parra, the wildest jazz musician of recent times. He says he finds the wine wild, full of energy and minerality. It was produced with grapes from an old vineyard in Guarilihue that is worked by horse, from vines planted on decomposed and rocky granite soils with some iron and a sandy and silty texture. It fermented with 100% full clusters after four or five days with native yeasts and a total maceration time of 55 days, then the wine matured in an oak vat for 11 months. It has 13.5% alcohol and is austere and sharp, mineral and stony. It's a bit reductive and opens up to notes of fresh blood and iodine, a little Gonon with that herbal side. The palate is phenomenal; it's deep and has grip and is mineral and intense with energy, direct and not shy. Superb. 1,537 bottles were filled in February 2022. This has a strong personality and feels very complete.

Winemaking
Fermented with indigenous yeasts, whole bunches and 51 days of skin soaking after fermentation. Aged for 10 months in neutral toasted French oak foudres.
Description
Pedro Parra Newk is a pure and authentic expression of Chilean terroir. Produced in the heart of Guarilihue Alto, this wine comes from the smallest vineyard cultivated by Pedro Parra. It is composed entirely of the Cinsault variety, a grape that has adapted beautifully to the conditions of the Chilean terroir. This particular wine pays homage to the wild and passionate saxophonist Sonny "Newk" Rollins.
Winemaking
In the cellar, spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts takes place in concrete tanks with 100% whole bunches. This process brings out the natural characteristics of the grapes and adds complexity to the wine. Subsequently, the wine is aged in large 1,500 litre unroasted foudres, which allows for a slow and balanced maturation, preserving the fruity and earthy qualities of the Cinsault.
Taste
The aroma of Pedro Parra Newk reveals a reductive vinification, but once it dissipates, subtle red fruits emerge accompanied by whole cluster aromatics. On the palate, this wine stands out for its tension and excellent mouthfeel. Dark red fruits dominate the flavour profile, culminating in a long, grandiose finish. It is a wine that perfectly combines fruit intensity with a balanced tannic structure, offering a unique tasting experience.
