Malbec
Located in the southern section of the alluvial cone of the Tunuyán river at 1060 masl height. Characteristic white soil due to the existence of calcium carbonate (calcareous) with abundant presence of large stones (rocks).
The LIME-STONE- SAND/ CLAY System at its best.
This unique terroir is what conveys the uniqueness of our Malbec.
