The wine region of La Rioja
Wine province of northwest Argentina, historical cradle of national viticulture at over 1,100 m altitude. Torrontés Riojano signature as king white: aromatic and expressive with signature notes of rose, jasmine, white peach, citrus and a musky touch, dry yet round palate — the most expressive of Argentina's three Torrontés, cousin of Muscat. Also dense Malbec, spicy Syrah, supple Bonarda, firm Cabernet. Dry sunny continental climate, drip irrigation.
The word of the wine: Performance
Quantity of grapes harvested per hectare. In AOC, the average yield is limited on the proposal of the appellation syndicate, validated by the Inao. The use of high-performance plant material (especially clones) and better control of vine diseases have increased yields. This is not without consequences on the quality of the wines (dilution) and on the state of the market (too much wine). We must not over-simplify: low yields are not synonymous with quality, and it is often in years with generous harvests that we find the greatest vintages (1982 and 1986 in Bordeaux, 1996 in Champagne, 1990 and 2005 in Burgundy...).
