Location
At present, we have two Malbec vineyards located in what
is generally acknowledged to be the world's best terrain
for the Malbec grape, Lujan de Cuyo, Mendoza, Argentina.
Our vineyards sit at an elevation of 3000 feet above sea
level on the eastern flank of the Andes, with hot days,
cold
nights
and little
rain. The first vineyard, in Carrodilla,
where we have built our winery, consists of 30 acres of
ungrafted, pre-phylloxera vines planted in 1919 and the
second, in Las Compuertas, has
20 acres of less venerable vines planted in 1966.
