Malbec leads the plantings, with Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, plus one more alongside it.
The ground underneath is clay and sand.
The climate is continental, running altitude-moderated.
The vineyards themselves read as elevated and mountains.
Red wine and white wine is what the region is known for, and in the glass it shows rich and robust, crisp and refreshing and exhibiting floral and citrus notes.
At the table these bottles work with grilled meats, rich pasta dishes and aged cheeses.
Serve chilled.
Rewards decades in the cellar.
