The wine region of Famatina
Andean valley of La Rioja Argentina between the Famatina and Velasco ranges, altitude vineyards 900-1,400 m, arid climate with strong temperature swings. Torrontes Riojano reigns in white: brilliantly aromatic with jasmine, rose, citrus, lychee, white peach and honeyed touch — the world apex of Argentina's emblematic grape, lively and refreshing. Dense Malbec (blackberry, plum, violet), peppery Syrah, supple Bonarda, Cabernet as complement. Floral high-altitude whites.
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: Pinot meunier
Cultivated in the 19th century in all the northern vineyards, this black grape variety has largely regressed since. Very present in the Marne valley, it constitutes a third of the vineyards in Champagne, alongside pinot noir and chardonnay with which it is often blended. It brings roundness and red and yellow fruit aromas to champagnes. Pinot meunier is also the dominant grape variety in red and rosé wines in the Orleans AOC and the rare Touraine-Noble-Joué, a grey wine. Syn.: meunier.
