This wine captures the essence of the terroir in Finca Altamira, located at 1,100m above sea level in the Uco Valley. Reflecting the unique characteristics of this site, it is crafted through a careful selection of micro-terroirs within the vineyard, segmented by varying soil profiles. Minimal intervention in both the vineyard and winery results in a pure, organic expression of Altamira. Following a manual harvest, the wine is aged for 12 months in large French oak foudres.

On the palate, it reveals notes of pure minerals, wet stones, sour red cherries, hibiscus, and a touch of iodine. The vibrant, juicy fruit is complemented by fresh, ashy tannins that give way to a long, focused finish. This powerful yet svelte wine showcases impeccable tension, precision, and freshness. Made from organically grown grapes and suitable for vegans. Drink now or hold!

Description

An utter delight! Intense purple red colour, with aromas of black cherry and flowers like violet. Fresh, vibrant entrance, due to its natural acidity and the minerality provided by the Altamira terroir. In the mouth it is juicy, of good structure and volume with a long, tense and vibrant end. A lovely earthy character with an inner electricity shining all the way through.

Tasting Notes

About the Brand

Deeply rooted in the soils of Mendoza, crafted with the spirit of Argentina, and shared with the world, Argento embodies the essence of modern Argentina. Their story is simple – Argento is intrinsically entwined with its country of origin. When you drink their wines, you experience the real Argentina.

In 1998 they recognized an opportunity to unlock the extraordinary potential of Malbec. The team of winemakers set out with the goal of revealing its vibrant, velvety character and the intense flavors of Malbec grown at the foothills of the Andes. We are very proud of our country’s winemaking heritage and the unique terroir of Mendoza, and we are dedicated to crafting wines that emphasize the hallmarks of the Argento style – fruit purity, vibrancy and elegance. In 2012 they began to write a new chapter in our history, with the premise of leading the production of organic and sustainable wines to preserve in each bottle the best of this region, which has dry climate and alluvials soils, mountain water, high-altitude and sun brightness.

In 2022, Guia Descorchados, a celebrated & respected South American wine magazine (based in Chile) elected Juan Pablo Murgia, Chief Winemaker at Bodega Argento as 'Winemaker of the Year'.
