The wine region of Perdriel
Historic district in central Luján de Cuyo (Mendoza), vineyards at 900-1,000 m on deep alluvial clay soils, home to some of Argentina's oldest Malbec vines. Malbec is the signature red: powerful and concentrated with deep notes of blackberry, plum, blackcurrant, violet, chocolate and a spiced touch, firm silky tannins, full body and superb aging potential — the classic reference style of Mendocino Malbec. Structured Cabernet Sauvignon and taut Chardonnay complement.
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: Champagne rosé
Often obtained by adding red wines (from Champagne), it is even the only vineyard where this practice is allowed. Some producers prefer the practice used in other regions, i.e. a short maceration to extract sufficient colouring matter. This results in winey rosés for meals. Elegant aperitif rosé is more often made from red wine coloured Chardonnay. Rosés can be vintage or non vintage.
