✨ Technical Specifications
The Terroir Series Finca Coletto is a tribute to the dedicated grape growers of Mendoza, specifically honoring Victorio Coletto, who planted this historic vineyard in El Peral, Tupungato within the Uco Valley back in 1955. Situated at an elevation of over 1,100 meters, these old, ungrafted vines benefit from intense solar radiation and dramatic diurnal temperature shifts. This unique microclimate yields small, concentrated berries with thick skins. Trapiche crafts this single-vineyard masterpiece to showcase the profound depth of Uco Valley Malbec, aging the wine in French oak barrels to seamlessly integrate its robust structure, velvety tannins, and signature notes of dark plums, balsamic herbs, and mineral-driven acidity.
