โจ Technical Specifications
Trapiche's Costa & Pampa project represents a daring viticultural frontier in Argentina, located in Chapadmalal, Buenos Aires Province, just six kilometers from the Atlantic Ocean. Breaking away from the traditional high-altitude, arid terroirs of Mendoza, this pioneering estate embraces a true maritime climate characterized by cool ocean breezes, abundant rainfall, and thermal moderation. The Gewurztraminer planted here thrives in these unique conditions, developing intense aromatics without losing its refreshing natural acidity. Fermented in stainless steel to preserve its pure varietal character, this wine offers a fascinating coastal expression of a classic European grape, marked by a distinct saline minerality derived from the nearby sea.
