✨ wine.spec_sheet
Hailing from the high-altitude desert of San Juan, Argentina, the Morita range by Finca Las Moras is named affectionately after the mulberry trees (moras) that frame the estate's sun-drenched vineyards. This Viognier is crafted to showcase the pure, unadorned character of the grape, benefiting from the intense solar radiation of the Tulum Valley and the refreshing, cool night breezes rolling down from the Andes. Fermented entirely in stainless steel to preserve its vibrant fruit profile, this wine captures the grape's exotic, aromatic signature, offering a bright and approachable expression of San Juan's unique terroir.
