✨ Technical Specifications
Finca Las Moras "Sir Noir" is a creative and rebellious take on Pinot Noir, a grape variety not traditionally associated with the sun-drenched, arid San Juan province of Argentina. By utilizing high-altitude vineyard sites where intense daytime sun is balanced by cool Andean night breezes, the winemakers successfully preserve the delicate acidity and bright fruit profile of this finicky grape. The name "Sir Noir" playfully personifies the wine as an elegant, mysterious gentleman. Crafted with minimal oak influence to keep the focus on its vibrant red berry characteristics, this wine showcases a softer, highly approachable side of Argentine red winemaking that defies regional stereotypes.
🍾 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.
