✨ Technical Specifications
Finca Las Moras's Alma Mora range is named in homage to the wild blackberry bushes ('moras') that grow around the vineyards in San Juan, Argentina. The Alma Mora Extra Brut is a lively sparkling wine that captures the high-altitude energy of the Tulum Valley. Crafted primarily using the Charmat method to retain maximum freshness and vibrant fruit character, this sparkling wine benefits from the intense Andean sunlight and cool night breezes of the region. It offers a crisp, refreshing profile with delicate bubbles, showcasing a beautiful balance of citrus and white flower aromas typical of San Juan's unique desert terroir.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1993 under the aegis of Grupo Peñaflor, Finca Las Moras emerged as a transformative force in the viticultural landscape of San Juan, Argentina. Taking its name from the mulberry trees (moras) framing its parcels, the estate encompasses over 1,100 hectares distributed across three distinct sub-regions: the warm alluvial Tulum Valley, intermediate Zonda Valley, and the high-altitude frontier of the Pedernal Valley, situated at 1,350 to 1,400 meters above sea level. In Pedernal, cooling Andean breezes, significant diurnal temperature variation, and calcareous, gravel-strewn soils yield fruit marked by brisk natural acidity and exceptional aromatic tension. Led viticulturally by long-tenured chief winemaker Eduardo Casademont, the estate balances wide commercial reach with artisanal experimentation. While renowned for pioneering premium Syrah and Malbec, Finca Las Moras crafts distinctive white wines ranging from crisp, high-elevation Black Label Sauvignon Blanc and organic Chardonnay to traditional Pedro Ximénez aged biologically under flor, such as Pedrito.
