✨ Technical Specifications
Finca Las Moras's Alma Mora line translates to 'the soul of the blackberry,' a poetic nod to the mulberry trees that dot the San Juan landscape and gave the winery its name. This Rosado de Syrah is crafted from Syrah grapes grown in the high-altitude, sun-drenched vineyards of San Juan, where the intense desert sun is tempered by cool alpine nights. The grapes are harvested early to preserve their vibrant natural acidity and delicate red fruit aromas. A brief cold maceration gives the wine its brilliant pink hue before cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks. This process captures the pure, expressive character of San Juan Syrah in a refreshing, modern rosé style, marked by notes of wild strawberries, raspberries, and a subtle touch of spice.
🍾 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.
