Deep, velvety reds with an intense purple colour, showing aromas of blackberry, black plum, violet, cocoa and gentle spice. Round tannins, fleshy palate, peppery length. Star of Cahors AOC (Côt, Auxerrois) in France and the absolute signature of Mendoza, Argentina (Uco Valley, Luján de Cuyo). A French South-West variety that became the Argentine emblem after its post-phylloxera decline.

The wine region of Pedernal Valley

High-altitude sub-region in southern San Juan (Argentina), vineyards at 1,300 m on gravelly flint-shard soils ("pedernal"), cold nights and intense UV. Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon signature reds: elegant and precise with blackberry, cassis, plum, violet, spice and fresh mineral hints, ripe tannins and preserved acidity — tauter than Mendoza neighbours. Complex Syrah in red. Vibrant Sauvignon Blanc and taut Chardonnay in fresh whites.


The wine region of San Juan

Argentina's 2nd province by volume, a very sunny Andean oasis (<30 cloudy days/year). Signature Syrah (~22% of Argentine Syrah): intense, sun-drenched reds with signature notes of blackberry, black plum, pepper, olive, violet and sweet spice, round tannins and vivid fruit. Also fleshy Malbec, supple Bonarda, spicy Tempranillo. Floral, muscat Torrontes and ample Chardonnay in white.

The word of the wine: Shoulder
