2023 El Montañista Corte de Blancas, Calingasta Valley, Argentina
$24.99
Torrentés Sanjuanino and Torrontés Mendocino (with small amounts of Malvasia and Maticha) from the 80-year-old Paraje Hilario vineyard, planted on quartz-rich colluvial rocks at 1500m in the foothills of the Andes mountains. The grapes were hand harvested, destemmed, and macerated on their skins for the duration of alcoholic fermentation in concrete. This wine was never pressed: just the free run juice was rested in concrete for 7 months before bottling, where it formed a veil of flor.
