✨ Technical Specifications
Finca Las Moras's Alma Mora Chardonnay captures the vibrant, sun-drenched spirit of San Juan, Argentina. Grown in the high-altitude desert of the Tulum Valley, where the vines are nourished by pure meltwater from the Andes and bathed in intense, high-altitude sunlight, this Chardonnay showcases a remarkably expressive fruit profile. The name Alma Mora, meaning Blackberry Soul, pays homage to the abundant blackberry bushes that grow wild around the vineyards, symbolizing the winery's deep connection to its rugged, natural landscape. Crafted in a fresh, modern style, the winemaking focuses on preserving the grape's natural acidity and bright tropical fruit flavors, resulting in an approachable, elegant white wine that reflects the unique microclimate of San Juan.
🍾 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 Peñaflor 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.
