The wine region of Buenos Aires
Argentine Atlantic coast province (Médanos, Chapadmalal, Sierra de la Ventana), renaissance since 2000 in contrast to the powerful Andean reds, temperate oceanic climate. Malbec is king in an atypical red: fresh and elegant with notes of cherry, raspberry, violet, herbs and a saline maritime touch, fine tannins — far more airy than Mendoza. Firm Cabernet Sauvignon and silky Pinot Noir as complements. Crisp Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling in whites.
The wine region of Patagonia
Argentina's wine frontier, cool continental climate at low altitude (~200 m), strong natural acidity. Signature Pinot Noir, now a regional emblem: fine, silky reds with signature notes of tart cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, undergrowth, violet and sweet spices, delicate tannins and taut freshness — a southern Burgundian style. Also Malbec fresher than in the north, round Merlot. Taut Sémillon, Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Riesling whites.
The word of the wine: Confit
Said of red wines that offer a very ripe nose of red and black fruits reminiscent of jam. On the palate, these aromas are dominant, the wine is very fleshy and round, and leaves an impression of sweetness on the finish that weighs it down.
