A powerful and sensory experience. A wine of great intensity, with a concentrated and beautiful bouquet of wild blackberries, licorice, and spice. Remarkably balanced on the palate, this is an elegant and soft wine with silky tannins.
The old vines were planted in Las Compuertas in Lujan de Cuyo in 1908. The vines are
meticulously cared for and undergo deleafing and precise pruning during January. The
manual harvest takes place in small trays of 20kg in order not to damage the grapes. A
second manual sorting takes place prior to vinification to ensure the best grapes are
selected. "This wine is made in honour of all the immigrants who planted, worked and
taught us, gave us the blessing of our flagship varietal, who for over 100 years live in this
land, which has taken a unique identity in the world".
Matias Riccitelli is the son of renowned winemaker Jorge Riccitelli. Having worked at some of the most prestigious wineries in Argentina and several vintages around the world, Matias used his experience, knowledge and passion and set up his own winery in 2009. His vineyards cover 50 hectares located in three selected sites within the premium growing region of Lujan de Cuyo, Mendoza. This is a young and dynamic project in which Matias is seeking to express the full potential of Argentine terroir.
