✨ Technical Specifications

Hailing from the sun-drenched valleys of San Juan, Argentina, Alma Mora Cabernet Sauvignon captures the vibrant spirit of an oasis carved out of a high-altitude desert. The name 'Alma Mora' translates to 'blackberry soul,' a poetic nod to the wild mulberry trees that dot the landscape and gave Finca Las Moras its name. Nourished by pure Andean snowmelt and basking in intense, high-altitude sunlight, the grapes develop thick skins, resulting in a wine of deep color and rich concentration. This Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted to showcase the pure, expressive fruit of the region, balancing ripe blackcurrant and blackberry flavors with subtle notes of sweet spice and vanilla derived from careful oak contact. It is a modern, approachable expression of Argentine winemaking that honors the rugged beauty of its terroir.

🍾 About the Producer

Established in the 1990s in San Juan, Argentina, Finca Las Moras emerged as an essential pioneer in reshaping the region's viticultural landscape across the Tulum, Zonda, and Pedernal Valleys. Now part of the Grupo PeΓ±aflor family, the winery takes its name from the native blackberry trees that frame its high-altitude vineyards tucked against the Andes Mountains. Finca Las Moras is celebrated for its innovative and sustainable approach to winemaking, focusing heavily on unlocking the regional potential of Syrah alongside classic Argentine staples like Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, and aromatic whites such as Viognier and Sauvignon Blanc. From the accessible and fruit-driven Intis line to complex, terroir-focused reserves, their wines showcase the intense sunshine, mineral-rich soils, and vibrant fruit purity characteristic of San Juan.
