picture of

Intense dark color with, despite some aging, still purple shades. Floral and fruity notes predominate and are accompanied by more complex tones, obtained through the maturation of wood. Impressions of wood, chocolate, cocoa and fine spices.

Argentinian matured prime rib on the grill or other tasty meat, Roasted lamb chops, horse meat, game preparations and (spiced) stews.

climate

The summers are hot and dry and can reach 40° C. But the nights cool to 15-20° which helps to produce refreshing and elegant wines. Winters are moderate and the protection of the Andes rarely causes night frost. Irrigation with melt water.

soil

Single vineyard located in Vista Flores (Tunuyán) at an altitude of 1054m. Sandy soils with a lot of loam in the higher parts and more stone and boulders in the lower parts.

vinification

The grapes are picked in 3 different times and at different locations in the vineyard. The various cuves that result from this are fermented separately and raised in different ways. Vinification happens in various wooden barrels, egg-shaped cements and in some cases a little Petit Verdot is fermented with it. After maceration and fermentation, the final blend is made and the wines are put on a mix of French oak for 16 months and rest for 12 months in the bottle.
