The wine region of Tupungato
High-altitude jewel (1,050-1,500 m) in the Uco Valley (Mendoza, Argentina): signature Malbec as the royal red — concentrated and fresh with notes of blackberry, blackcurrant, plum, violet, cocoa and a touch of spice, chiselled tannins and acidity preserved by altitude, more elegant and taut than Luján. Structured Cabernet and fresh Pinot Noir (Gualtallary the star) in support. Racy, mineral Chardonnay. Stony alluvium over sand and limestone, dry continental, extreme thermal range.
The wine region of Mendoza
World capital of Malbec: powerful, deep reds with blackberry, plum, violet and sweet spice, round tannins and vivid fruit. Also firm Cabernet Sauvignon, supple, juicy Bonarda, aromatic floral white Torrontés. High-altitude vineyards (800-1,700 m) at the foot of the Andes, dry continental climate irrigated by glacial waters. ~80% of Argentine output across 150,000 ha.
The word of the wine: Table wine
Everything that is not VQPRD (European designation for all appellation wines: quality wine produced in a specific region). In principle, the bottom of the ladder. But, as in Italy a decade ago (Vino da Tavola), this category is also a refuge for wines that are out of the ordinary, whose producers refuse to accept certain grape variety or vinification dictates.
