✨ Technical Specifications
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.
🍾 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 Peñaflor 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.
