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.
