The wine region of Vista Flores

Uco Valley district (Tunuyán, ~1,100 m, sandy-clay alluvials, rocks, loam and sought-after limestone): Malbec red king alongside Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah — signature with deep black fruit and floral rose aromas, remarkable structure, intense colour, full-bodied richly tannic, balanced by preserved acidity and elegance, characteristic limestone minerality. Sun-drenched climate tempered by Andean winds, elegant and complex Malbec.


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: Vinosity

When tasting a red wine, a pleasant sensation on the palate with a fruity and sappy character in harmony with a caressing and persistent presence of tannins.
