The fruit comes from Luján de Cuyo, historically Mendoza’s “prime zone” for wine-growing. Vineyards are situated at 3,250–3,470 feet (990–1,060 meters) in a semi-desert climate, with low-nutrient, gravelly soils ideal for producing concentrated, high-quality grapes. All grapes are hand-harvested to ensure optimal ripeness.

Winemaking

The wine is aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, with a small proportion of first-use barrels. Each lot is vinified separately, allowing the final blend to be carefully determined after aging. The wine is bottled unfined to preserve its natural purity and complexity.

Tasting Note

Deep ruby red with violet hues, the wine displays aromas of red fruit, plum, graphite, and subtle floral notes. The palate is round and balanced, with sweet, juicy tannins and a smooth, lingering finish.

Food Matching

Ideal with succulent roasted meats, such as a slow-roasted leg of lamb.
