Lejanamente Juntos (meaning 'Distantly Together') is a poetic and masterfully crafted red blend from Trivento that celebrates the synergy of Mendoza's signature red varieties: Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon. The name reflects the philosophy of bringing together distinct grape varieties sourced from different high-altitude micro-terroirs within the Uco Valley and Luján de Cuyo, which are vinified separately before being united in French oak barrels. This wine represents a dialogue between the plush, dark-fruit-forward nature of Malbec and the structured, savory elegance of Cabernet Sauvignon. The result is a sophisticated, age-worthy blend that showcases the complexity achievable when these two noble grapes are thoughtfully integrated under the influence of Mendoza's high-altitude sunshine and cool mountain nights.
