Nestled at the foothills of the snow-capped Andes mountains, Mendoza is known as the best wine producing region in Argentina. With vines planted on high plateaux between 800 and 1200m above sea level, Mendoza's vineyards are known as the highest in the world. Sheltered from the rain by the mountains to the West and the Pampa to the East, the region is very arid. Mendoza wines draw their character from an exceptional sun exposure and wide temperature variations between night and day.

The nose is complex with aromas of cocoa, red fruits and figs layered with cinnamon and a touch of smoke. The palate unveils seductive aromas of black fruit with very well-integrated oak. This wine has great balance and an exceptional freshness.

Harvest is conducted by hand and grapes are carefully sorted on tables and destemmed before being placed
in stainless steel tanks for fermentation. Regular pumping-over ensure a gentle extraction of the tannins.
After malolactic fermentation, 50% of the wine is transferred into French oak barrels for a period of 12
months, and 50% is placed in concrete vats.
