Tasting note

Highly expressive nose showcases vibrant red and black fruit, cherry, wild raspberry and ripe plum. The aromatic profile is youthful, showing delicate wild ferment nuances typical of minimal intervention practices. The aging in tinajas (traditional terracotta amphorae) enhances the clarity of fruit and structure without imparting additional aromas. It is medium to full-bodied, with a juicy fruit core and grainy tannins that add texture and a rustic yet refined character. Natural sediment may be present because wine is bottled without fining or filtration.

Viticulture

Vineyard: Cordón del Plata, Uco Valley.

Vinification
