The wine region of San Juan
Argentina's 2nd province by volume, a very sunny Andean oasis (<30 cloudy days/year). Signature Syrah (~22% of Argentine Syrah): intense, sun-drenched reds with signature notes of blackberry, black plum, pepper, olive, violet and sweet spice, round tannins and vivid fruit. Also fleshy Malbec, supple Bonarda, spicy Tempranillo. Floral, muscat Torrontes and ample Chardonnay in white.
The word of the wine: Chaptalization
The addition of sugar at the time of fermentation of the must, an ancient practice, but theorized by Jean-Antoine Chaptal at the dawn of the 19th century. The sugar is transformed into alcohol and allows the natural degree of the wine to be raised in a weak or cold year, or - more questionably - when the winegrower has a harvest that is too large to obtain good maturity.
