Hailing from the sun-drenched, high-altitude desert of San Juan, Argentina, the Alma Mora Select Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon captures the rugged elegance of the Tulum Valley. The name 'Mora' pays homage to the abundant mulberry trees that dot this oasis, framing a terroir defined by intense solar radiation and dramatic diurnal temperature shifts. Crafted from carefully selected grapes, this wine undergoes traditional fermentation followed by aging in oak barrels. This process tempers the bold, structured tannins of the Cabernet Sauvignon, weaving rich notes of ripe blackberries, cassis, and black pepper with subtle undertones of vanilla, chocolate, and toasted oak, reflecting the pioneering spirit of San Juan winemaking.
