β¨ Technical Specifications
Finca Las Moras' Extra Brut Viognier Syrah is a wonderfully unconventional sparkling wine that showcases the winery's pioneering and playful spirit in the high-altitude desert of San Juan, Argentina. Combining the highly aromatic, floral Viognier with the robust, spicy Syrah vinified with minimal skin contact, this sparkling cuv e is crafted using the Charmat method to preserve its vibrant, fresh fruit character. The intense sunlight and cool night breezes of the Tulum Valley allow the grapes to retain vital acidity while developing rich, expressive flavors. This innovative blend challenges traditional sparkling norms, offering a delightful narrative of modern Argentinian winemaking where rules are rewritten to capture the pure, sun-drenched essence of the Andes.
πΎ 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 PeΓ±aflor 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.
