The wine region of Paraje Altamira
Pioneer Argentine IG 2013 (southern Uco Valley, La Consulta, 1,000-1,200 m, first technical GI): Malbec is the signature red king — elegant, mineral and slightly spicy with deep dark fruit aromas, characteristic chalky texture and unique identity, long ageing. Short alluvial soils (10-80 cm) sandy-loam on pebbly conglomerate covered with calcium carbonate, strong diurnal range, cool nights, Argentine finesse.
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: Vinification of sweet wines
Moelleux and liquoreux wines are characterized by the presence of residual sugars (natural sugar of the grape), not transformed into alcohol under the effect of yeasts. The fermentation is stopped by cold and by the addition of sulphur dioxide (sulphur).
