Deep, sandy, clayey soils, combined with a colder than average climate; contributes the uniqueness of the wine Characteristics Not Available Vista Flores district of Tunuyán “Vineyards were planted in the last decade and a half at a height of between 1,000m and 1,300m in similar al­ luvial soils to the rest of the Uco Valley. The dis­ tinction of this region, however, comes from an aromatic vegetal trace, reminiscent of eucalyp­ tus and vine leaves.” Gualtallary According to Alejan­ dro Vigil, a wine­ maker at Catena Za­ pata, “Here Malbec is linear, rich in red fruit, and good in concentration and elegance.” Paraje Altamira GI The Malbec from Altamira is fruity and slightly vegetal with a minerally profile and plenty of freshness. La Consulta, San Carlos District planted over a hundred years ago at around 1000m. Mal­ becs offer a complex, fruity aroma with floral traces, and a mouthful of fleshy tannins and freshness.
