Nose

Fresh and vibrant red fruits that remind us of the crispness of the cherries taken from the trees in the Mendoza piedmont, mixed with subtle notes of herbs and tangerine peel.

Palate

It is a tasty wine with a silky structure, in the mouth it mixes the spice and the fruit in a unique combination that makes you want to take a second and even a third glass.

Growing Conditions

Grapes come mainly from vineyards in Luján de Cuyo and Medrano in a smaller percentage. The region has a semi-desert climate with hot days and cool nights. We choose fresh soils, with good water drainage and a fine silt-sandy texture. These soils allow a deep development of the roots since their water retention capacity is great for them to expand and give the plants a better ability to resist heat waves, which are common during the summer in Mendoza. In this climate, we avoid soils with abundant superficial gravels, which increase the warming effect around the vine and might shorten the ripening season.

Winemaking

A blend of Malbec, Bonarda and Semillon grapes, harvested by hand. Careful, double sorting process, before fermentation. Malbec and Semillon grapes are co-fermented, while Bonarda is vinified separately before the final blend. Fermentation takes place in separate stainless steel tanks, at a temperature between 24-28°C, for 10 days. Only indigenous yeasts are involved in the process. Each tank is tasted three times a day to determine what is needed.

Aging

The wine is then aged for a minimum of 9 months in concrete vats. No oak aging.
