Alma Mora, translating to 'Soul of the Blackberry' in reference to the historic mulberry trees that dot the San Juan landscape, captures the vibrant and youthful spirit of Finca Las Moras. Sourced from high-altitude vineyards in the San Juan province of Argentina, this Sauvignon Blanc thrives in a desert-like terroir characterized by intense sunlight and cool Andean nights. To preserve its crisp, aromatic profile, the grapes are harvested early and fermented entirely in stainless steel tanks, avoiding any oak contact. The result is a highly expressive white wine that showcases the purity of the grape with bright citrus, green apple, and herbaceous notes.
