✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the sun-drenched Tulum Valley in San Juan, Argentina, Finca Las Moras Sauvignon Blanc is a testament to the magic of high-altitude desert viticulture. Here, at the foothills of the majestic Andes, the vines are bathed in intense, brilliant sunlight by day and cooled by crisp mountain drafts by night. This dramatic diurnal temperature swing allows the Sauvignon Blanc grapes to develop intense aromatic profiles while retaining a bracing, mouth-watering acidity. Nourished by pure, mineral-rich Andean meltwater flowing through alluvial soils, the grapes are harvested early in the morning to preserve their delicate, zesty character. The resulting wine is fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to maintain its pure, fruit-forward identity, offering a vibrant expression of San Juan's unique terroir that is both refreshing and highly approachable.
🍾 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.
