Wine in Salta

Brilliant ruby color with violet edges. Strawberries, raspberries and ripe fruit with touch of pepper and spices aromas. In mouth, flavors of red fruit, spice and hints of vanilla from aging in French oak. Round, soft tannins lead to a delicate, lingering finish.

The Dos Minas Malbec is 100% Malbec from 15-year-old vines in Finca Rio Seco vineyards of Cafayate, Argentina near Salta in northern Argentina. These vineyard sites are warm, but very high in altitude at 1,700 m above sea level, so there are very warm days and cool nights, great for ripening grapes. The grapes were harvested by hand over the 1st and 2nd week of March in 20kg bins, and then fermented in stainless steel. The aging for the wine takes place partially in stainless steel and partially in neutral oak. 1,500 cases produced.

ABOUT THE PRODUCER In 1988, Dany and Michel Rolland were asked to be consultants to one of the oldest families in the valley of Calchaquie, the Etcharts. There they discovered Cafayate, a true paradise for viticulture in the north-west of Argentina. They fell in love with the country, its culture, traditions and its people. It was a ‘coup de coeur’! Cafayate is an extremely beautiful region situated several hundred kilometers to the south of the Tropic of Capricorn, at 6560 feet altitude with a very distinctive climate of hot days and cool nights. The name is highly unusual - and very un-French! Translating literally to ”clear water” in the Quechua language, it references the precious river adjacent to the vineyard.

Finca La Linda Torrontés is a light yellow-green wine, whose nice floral aromas have some hints of rosehip and a touch of lavender. It is sweet on the palate and with a balanced acidity. It has also notes of white peach and memories of orange peel jam. Its light body makes it smooth and ideal to enjoy in endless situations.

The appeal of this Argentine white grape is the tropical spicy flavours applied to a softer palate feel. It sort of curls up with a nice linger to enjoy. Serve with spicy fare, tandoori chicken or starter salad courses

Intense yellow with silver sparkles. Nose: intense and delicate, full of white and citrus fruits, orange peel, and oregano. Palate: well structured wine, good fat, with a vibrant acidity. Intensely aromatic, with a long, delicate finish.

Our Kaiken Torrontes gives us an attractive golden color with green hues. The wine has a very elegant nose with a medium aromatic intensity, where Muscat, fresh flowers and tropical fruits aromas can be found. 100% Torrontes VEGAN SOCIETY CERTIFIED

Terroir: Sourced entirely from estate vineyards high in Argentina’s northwest Andes. This extreme elevation lends itself perfectly to organic viticulture. Hot days, cool nights, lack of rainfall and a dry shallow soil allow for minimal human interference to the natural growth cycle of the vines. Vinification: All organic practices are carried over from vineyard to winery where the wines are carefully handled throughout the entire vinification process. Cuma is produced to be drunk young, therefore little oak is used in the winery; instead the wines are aged at cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks in an effort to showcase they’re natural complexity and deep fruit flavors.
