| Winery | The grapes are grown in Gualtallary, Tupungato, in the Uco Valley, at 1,300 meters above sea level. At this altitude, the diurnal temperature difference between warm days and cool nights creates a long hang time, concentrating the flavours in the berries while retaining balancing acidity. The vines are irrigated by a drip-water system that regulates and supplies the exact amount of water that the plant needs. The vineyard soils are alluvial, sandy, and permeable. |
