Descrizione

Il Malbec di Terrazas De Los Andes è un vino rosso argentino che incanta fin dall'inizio con il suo colore rosso intenso e vibrante. Viene prodotto nelle valli di Mendoza, una regione rinomata per le sue condizioni climatiche uniche che favoriscono la coltivazione della vite. Questo Malbec si caratterizza per i suoi intensi aromi di frutti neri maturi come mora e prugna, accompagnati da sottili note di violetta e spezie che aggiungono complessità al bouquet.

In bocca, si presenta con una struttura solida e tannini morbidi, che donano una piacevole sensazione vellutata al palato. Il fruttato percepito al naso si ritrova anche al gusto, con una buona acidità che bilancia perfettamente la ricchezza dei sapori. È un vino corposo e ben equilibrato, ideale per accompagnare carni rosse, cacciagione e formaggi stagionati.

L'affinamento in barrique di rovere francese aggiunge ulteriori sfumature di vaniglia e cioccolato, rendendo il Malbec di Terrazas De Los Andes un'esperienza sensoriale avvolgente e appagante. Questo vino rappresenta una scelta eccellente per chi desidera esplorare la tipicità e l'eleganza dei vini argentini.

Winery history

The project began in the early 1990s with the exploration of Mendoza’s high-altitude terraces. The first vintage of Reserva Malbec was vinified in 1996 and released to the market in the late 1990s. Over the years the winery has acquired and developed vineyards in key appellations such as Luján de Cuyo and the Valle de Uco, integrating irrigation technologies and modern viticultural practices.

Production philosophy

Strong focus on the mountain environment and on fruit quality: production of "mountain wines" at high altitude using agricultural practices focused on soil regeneration, water conservation and reducing environmental impact. The winery's messaging emphasizes the claim that fresher, more elegant wines come from altitude and the precise management of vineyard parcels.

Terroir and vineyards

The vineyards are located in the province of Mendoza, with parcels distributed between Luján de Cuyo and several subzones of the Valle de Uco. Some of the vineyards mentioned include Las Compuertas, Los Castaños, El Pedregal, Licán, Cepas del Plata and El Espinillo, cultivated at different altitudes to enhance the expression of each terroir.
